Parent Coaching
Parent coaching is about co-creating an action plan that helps you tackle parenting struggles, with your own nervous system needs at the forefront. I will meet you with compassion and knowledge, and use up-to-date research on child development and brain science, so we can tackle challenges with confidence. Whether you are searching for solutions on how to better structure your home environment to build in calm spaces, how to increase consistency of language between caregivers, how to better support transitions, I am here to help! My goal is to move beyond a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy, so we can customize strategies with your family’s individual desires at the forefront. Understanding your child’s developing brain (and your nervous system needs) will surely empower you to thrive on your parenthood journey!
Safe & Sound Protocol and Rest & Restore Protocol Deliveries
Safe & Sound Protocol
The Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) is a neurophysiological listening therapy that is scientifically supported to regulate the nervous system, for improved attention, arousal, and social engagement. This program was developed and researched for decades by Dr. Stephen Porges, and is based on the Polyvagal Theory, or “the science of feeling safe.” The goal of the SSP is to build a more resilient nervous system, leading to improved regulation and daily functioning. When the nervous system detects safety, we move out of ‘fight-or-flight’, creating space for spontaneous social engagement to occur.
Rest & Restore Protocol
The Rest and Restore Protocol (RRP) is a listening intervention that aims to reduce stress, improve self-regulation, and promote deep relaxation, by syncing with natural bodily rhythms. The program supports clients with trauma backgrounds, chronic stress, and sensory overload to find greater connection to self, improved focus and mental clarity, greater resilience, and improved interoception.
Speaking Engagements
From teacher workshops, to university ‘career path’ events, to parent groups, and everything in between, I am passionate about educating others on the impact that occupational therapy can have on people’s lives. Having had numerous successful speaking opportunities (and growing) , I am confident in my ability to tailor topics to meet the specific learning goals of each group. Contact me today to inquire about how I can best contribute to the growth and development of your group or organization.
