Your work with Beth is defined by you and your unique family. You can expect lots of understanding, compassion and support; questions that may surprise and challenge you; relevant information that will help you re-define “problems” as strengths and spontaneous ideas that often bring easy “solutions”. You can expect to laugh more and be easier on yourself and your children.
You will walk away with a “toolbox” of techniques, strategies and information to use throughout your child’s development to confidently make daily parenting decisions that deepen your loving connection with your child.
Some of the challenges parents have found help with include:
- Setting and Holding Boundaries
- Screen-time Management
- Sibling Rivalry
- Teenagers
- Understanding Temperament
- Child-Focused Divorce
- Co-Parenting Strategies
In essence, consider me a supportive companion who champions your highest aspirations for yourself and your family.

Private Coaching for Parents
Your newborn didn't come with an owner’s manual. Your grade-school child is struggling to make friends. Maybe you can't get through to your teen, or maybe your family is going through a major change like new going to a new school, moving to a new home or navigating divorce. Private, customized parent coaching can give you the clarity, confidence and tools you need so that you can be the parent you want to be.
Small Group Coaching for Parents
Group coaching with a small number of parents offers the same clarity and parenting tools as individual coaching with the additional benefit of the perspectives of other parents facing similar issues. You will also get a wider range of feedback on your own questions and experiences, develop closer relationships with other parents and be a part of a group which can continue to build your confidence as you support each other throughout your child’s development.
Presentations for Parents
Parenting presentations offer participants the opportunity to focus on a specific topic, build community, gain knowledge and share with other parents. Are the parents in your community struggling with screen-time, sibling rivalry, or setting boundaries?
