Regulated Parents in Action
Come move, play, and learn with us! In this hands-on parent training series, we will dive into strategies to help regulate our children through the power of our own self-regulation. We will provide education and experiential opportunities
to help us understand how to use ourselves and the parent-child relationship to regulate our children. Each week we
will cover a topic that incorporates the use of sensory regulation, mindfulness, and yoga to positively influence our regulation so that we can approach parenting from a place
of fullness and abundance rather than emptiness and burnout. Parents will have practical tools to incorporate right away into daily life.
When: Tuesdays

Circle of Security® Parenting™ Group
The Circle of Security® Parenting™ program is based on decades of research about how secure parent-child relationships can be supported and strengthened and helps us make sense of what our children are really asking from us. This is a 10-week course that utilizes video clips to present information about The Circle as well as examples of parents using The Circle with their children. Groups are a mix of watching video clips to learn new concepts and discussing and reflecting on our own experiences. This program is appropriate for all parents, those looking to learn a bit more, those who are struggling in their relationship with their child, as well as new parents, foster and adoptive parents!

Kayla received her Master's of Science in Occupational Therapy at The College of St. Scholastica in Duluth, Minnesota. She continued her OT training in Minnesota at an outpatient clinic, practicing sensory integration with the pediatric population. Kayla then focused specifically on mental health with adults, adolescents, and pediatrics, working in a variety of settings, including an eating disorder clinic, a forensic unit, and an assisted living apartment for people with serious and persistent mental illnesses. With unique occupational therapy experience, Kayla is excited for the opportunity to assist families in meeting their goals. Kayla finds it important to focus on each client’s individual strengths, and help them use these strengths to build confidence and motivation in order to overcome challenges. Kayla’s favorite part of being an OT is connecting with clients and their families and building strong therapeutic relationships.

When Kayla is not working, she is enjoying time outside with her family. She especially enjoys hiking, cooking, yoga, volleyball, and playing fetch with her dog, Leo.
