Parent differently. Connect deeply.
Break the cycle.

Masterful Parenting provides courses, coaching, and support to help parents heal their past, parent relationally, and create secure, connected relationships with their children.

You don’t have to parent in survival mode.

When you understand what’s really driving your child’s behavior, parenting feels calmer and more intentional. Masterful Parenting helps you make sense of your child’s emotional world and developmental needs—so you know how to respond with confidence, compassion, and connection at every stage, from early childhood through the teen years.

About Me

For over 20 years, I’ve supported families as a School Counsellor, Teacher, and now as a Parent Coach. I’ve spent more than 15 years working closely with teens and their parents, giving me a deep understanding of adolescent development, family dynamics, and the real challenges parents face behind closed doors.

As a mom to two boys, ages 26 and 16, I understand both the joy and the complexity of parenting at every stage. I’ve lived through the transitions, the doubts, the breakthroughs, and the moments that stretch you as a parent. This personal experience, combined with my professional background, allows me to support parents with both compassion and practical guidance.

My approach is calm, supportive, and focused on real change. I help parents build stronger connections with their children, communicate with confidence, and create a home environment where everyone feels seen, heard, and supported.
