Feeling stretched thin as a parent? Unsure how to respond to your child’s behavior—or caught in cycles that just aren’t working?
Parenting is tough. Whether you’re dealing with tantrums, screen-time pushback, sibling rivalry, or daily power struggles, each phase—from toddlerhood to the teenage years—brings its own set of challenges. The good news? You don’t have to go through it alone.
My name is Jenny. I am a therapist and parenting specialist. I support parents who feel worn out, stuck, or uncertain about what steps to take next. Together, we’ll work on building strong emotional connection, setting kind and firm boundaries, and responding to behavior in ways that are both effective and respectful—without relying on yelling, blame, or guilt.
You'll gain practical strategies and compassionate support in a non-judgmental space, so you can parent with more confidence, calm, and clarity.
