I have worked with families in their homes, in clinical settings, and in schools to improve family quality of life. I specialize in making small changes to routines, environments, and styles of communication that can help you make big changes to the level of stress and anxiety both you and your child feel, and help you feel confident. I want you to have the tools and skills to manage big-behavior, and to shift into a way of parenting that feels authentic, intuitive, and grounded in your child’s needs (and yours!) not a parenting trend. Let’s work together to help you and your child shine. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef3e5e808e8a735ebcfdd8b/1600213400604-CYIX6TBG84IMLT7IAMDP/Childrens%2Billustrator%252C%2Bdesigner%252C%2Bparent%2Bcoaching%252C%2Bparent%2Btraining%252C%2Bparent%2Bsupport.jpg About https://www.createshinespace.com/home daily 1.0 2025-04-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef3e5e808e8a735ebcfdd8b/1594072392930-IEDY8GKDM1ZUBKR4GK62/time+out+for+bad+behavior+discipline+for+4+or+5+year+old.jpg Home Welcome! You’re tuned into all things positive parenting but find the mainstream strategies arduous and stressful. Tools and tricks shouldn’t feel like more work, or like they are trying to tame or change your child, they should bring you true relief. At ShineSpace Parenting, I provide holistic, environmentally focused intervention and solutions. I will help you to create a safe and comfortable place where both you and your child can become their best self — in your home, in their classrooms, and eventually, the world!

I’m a wellness oriented, heart-led Board Certified Behavior Analyst, Educator, and mom of two, with over 10 years of experience and a Masters degree in Education. I have worked with hundreds of families in their homes, in clinical settings and in schools. Today I specialize in working with parents who find it challenging to get through the day because of their child’s behavior. But I don’t believe you need to do a single thing to change your child – I know I wouldn’t want someone to tell me to change my sons. I also don’t think the answer lies with punishments or coercion. It’s about making a space where kids can shine exactly as they are. I believe we can make the world a truly inclusive space for all children, alongside happier parents. If you desire to find more ease in your life, and want to embrace your child exactly as they are, ShineSpace Parenting is for you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef3e5e808e8a735ebcfdd8b/a4416809-71a2-4ec4-b1ef-744dfcb96a30/photo-1477511614005-61bd8b91d218.jpg Home https://www.createshinespace.com/privacy-policy-4 daily 0.75 2020-07-29 https://www.createshinespace.com/blog-1 daily 0.75 2020-11-18 https://www.createshinespace.com/services daily 0.75 2024-11-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ef3e5e808e8a735ebcfdd8b/499b9d64-50f1-401f-a87a-948df1687415/tantrum+online+course+parents+behavior+help Services Are you a parent who wants to… Explore alternatives to traditional ABA or behavioral therapy? prioritize a long term healthy relationship with your child?

Bring more ease into your daily life, no matter what that day brings? If you answered yes to any of these questions, ShineSpace Parenting is for you. Typically we will have 6-8 sessions. Following our time together, you should expect to see a reduction in harmful, unsafe, and maladaptive behaviors. You should expect to feel relief, comfort, and ease in your day to day. You should expect to have more tools, an understanding of how the environment, rhythm and routine of your day to day can impact both you and your child. You should also expect a major mindset shift when it comes to getting both your needs and your child’s needs met in a way that brings comfort, safety, and connection into your home. You are a parent who has found that most online courses and coaches aren’t writing and teaching to you, the parents of the spicy ones, the kids with big hearts and big personalities (that you DON"‘T want to turn down the volume on!), but I am. This is for you, this is your place, this is your child’s place and there is not one thing we need to change about either of you.
