Parenting is hard work. As a coach, I serve as a support and trusted partner to parents who feel somehow stuck, stressed or disconnected within their family life or within interactions with their child. I provide structures and strategies to gently guide parents toward their own inner wisdom, understanding and growth. Each individual family has different strengths and challenges, so I structure my sessions and support to meet the needs of every unique family and its members. Through our sessions, parents discover new perspectives and strategies for bringing calm, connection and ease back to family life. They also develop a greater understanding of parenting that is aligned with psychological research, social-emotional development, brain science and neurodevelopment.

We started working with Melissa to help us with our pre-teen daughter's increasingly strong emotional events, which we were struggling to deal with.

She visited her at our home and has been following up with us weekly to advise on our entire family dynamic.

We were able to get positive results in almost a week! Now, months later we steadily improve and are all much happier.

Melissa has incisive, research-based insights based on her decades of experience. She also gives us more reading materials to increase our understanding of our own relationships. We're very thankful to have met her and happy to recommend her services.
