parent coach
I help you break the cycle of reactivity with your ADHD kid. Yelling, anger, frustration, and guilt don’t need to run the show.
I share the transformational tools to stop reacting and start responding with an intentional plan.
How do I do that?
the ResponseABLE Parenting ADHD Blueprint
We identify the pattern.
We create a family code and system to interrupt the pattern.
We simulate and practice so we override the negative impulse with desired behavior.
This builds confidence in both you and your child.
It develops the underdeveloped skills around task initiation and emotion management.
And it stops feeding the chaos and conflict.

Parenting an ADHD child doesn’t come with a manual. Instead, we repeat patterns from our parents and their parents before them. The execution might look different but the root is the same. We parent from unconscious neurological patterns that are deeply rooted in our childhood experiences. In order to break this pattern we need a plan. We cannot do this with willpower alone. We need skills, and thats what we develop every single day.
What is Responseable parenting?
-
It's an inside job
If you want to see different behavior from your children YOU need to go first. We identify into your triggers, the repeated family patterns, and level of skills so we can work from data vs. the emotional rollercoaster.
-
Simple Systems
Next, we follow the ADHD Blueprint and customize it to the exact scenarios that are causing conflict in your home. This helps every member of your family move away from reactivity and towards connection and collaboration.
-
Empowered awareness
When you have a plan and a system, you don’t have to panic. You will have such clarity you’ll know exactly what to do when you get into the pattern, so you can quickly get out and de-escalate the conflict.
Parent overwhelm is real!
Most of us have been taught that we need to yell, bribe, threaten, control, and punish in order to change our ADHD children’s behaviors.
But there is a better way! As your coach I will guide you to a deeper understanding of your children and provide you with lasting, effective, connective skills that will not only empower you as the parent, but your children in all of their current and future relationships.
