parent programs and support

​Regulated, connected parents are the KEY to creating regulation and connection in our children. We offer a variety of options to help YOU, the parent, be the best version of yourself for your child  These offerings help parents ground into their own nervous systems and been SEEN in their experience in order to be a safe, stable relational base for their children.

Occupational Therapy Jumpstart Parent Group

​

We know that wait lists, funding and full schedules are real challenges to accessing the services your child needs- and this is our response. We are introducing a new approach to occupational therapy and parenting training support that reflects the latest evidence supporting the most effective way to deliver treatment in the areas of regulation.

 

This parent training and consultation group will help you not only understand your child’s unique needs, but also what to do in the moment to create lasting change in the areas of emotional regulation, behavioral challenges, neurodivergence, sensory processing differences and the ability to get through the day with routines and learning.

 

You’ll leave each session with practical, personalized strategies — not just from me, but from a supportive group of like-minded parents walking this same journey.  I confidently believe that this model will create change for your child and your family- making any direct treatment that they receive shorter term- or possibly rendering direct treatment less of a priority.

Weekly Topics include:

Sensory processing - Regulation - Co-regulation - Emotional dysregulation - Managing meltdowns - Routines - Primitive Reflexes - Engagement and Play 

​

​Space will be limited to ensure that each family is able to receive individualized strategies. â€‹â€‹

Parenting Neurodivergent Kids Support Group

creating community-creating understanding-creating change

​

We all have a story to tell about parenting our neurodivergent children. In this support group, we begin by creating community with each other- the act of being SEEN creates CONNECTION.​

We believe that parents have a deep understanding of their child, however it is often clouded by societal norms or external expectations. We strive to create a space to reflect on who we are, who our kids and families are, how this lines up with societal expectations. By sharing it with others we can begin to take an active role in our story.​

In this support group, we won't provide answers, but we WILL provide safe connection in order to find your internal understanding. ​

​

Location: Virtual via Zoom

Cost: $10/session

You can sign up for as many monthly cohorts as you would like!

Individual Parent Nervous System Reset

 

Stress and trauma are often held in the body, making it a challenge to regulate our nervous systems.  This can complicate a parent’s/caregiver’s ability to co-regulate with their child, especially in those challenging moments.  Gentle bodywork and instruction in self-administered strategies to release stress and regulate the nervous system can help parents and caregivers be more grounded and available for their kids.   Bodywork provided by an occupational therapist with training in Neurovascular Integration (variant of craniosacral therapy), Myofascial Release, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) or tapping, and various reflex integration techniques and expertise in sensory based regulation strategies.

-      Sessions tailored to parents and caregivers needs and preferences.  

-      $150/ session private pay rate.
