Laura was a Godsend to me. With all I learned, I feel a sense of calm empowerment for the first time in YEARS! I even feel a sense of calm about my teens’ future. Before, I felt my life was flooded in chaos, but she helped me practice positive communication skills that conveyed my heart. I always looked forward to our next session. I highly recommend her!

I put the first lesson of the course to work right away. I had been working with Laura as my parent coach for a little while already when I started the course. My 16-year-old son has a lot of resentment towards me, but he is beginning to open up. He asked me to tell him something “meaningful” about him. (I tend to get on his case and bark orders.) After, thinking about it, I knew he was seeking affirmation. The first communication skill of the course is about Affirmations. I quickly wrote a few and sent them to Laura by FB Messenger. We revised them together to get the tone right, to be less judgmental. Then, I went back to my son and said, “I thought about what you were asking for and I want you to know I see how disciplined you are with your homework. I am also proud of your courage when you made a decision to choose another activity other than music when you felt you weren’t making progress. Right after I said it, my son invited me to watch Instagram videos with him! He hadn’t done that before. It was a big win!! Our trust and relationship is really growing. I can’t wait to finish the course and see more wins! Thank you, Laura.

I’m so glad I found Laura!

Laura offers a unique perspective in the sea of conscious parenting coaches. Her sociological approach conveys a strong hopeful message of “Co-creation” with our teens and fledgling adults. We as parents can make a positive difference to our kids (and ourselves) as they struggle to become their own people.

Laura is a superb listener. She shares simple yet powerful techniques such as affirmations and I – statements geared to create or enhance trust and personal responsibility.

I’ve been able to apply the skills to my teens and young adults. Thanks to Laura, our family relationships feel increasingly authentic and less drama -driven. That means more calm and confidence in ourselves and with each other.

I doubted myself before parent coaching with Laura. I was afraid that what I said might scar them for life because I was scared as a child. But Laura gave me a toolbox to share my heart with my kids. I used the tools week by week and felt so validated when it worked. Now my kids share their lives with me! And Laura was a great sounding board for different teen scenarios.

Through the years, I have searched a lot of resources to find what I have found in you. Before nothing was working. I know nothing is magic but I am building new relationships with my teens and I feel hopeful. Thank you!
