I am a Certified Nurtured Heart Trainer/Coach. I work with teachers and parents of spirited children to create better relationships.
I train teachers, parents, PTA groups, Anti-bullying agencies, Occupational Therapists, Pediatricians, Social Workers, School Counselors, religious groups, graduate students, etc.
The basis of the NHA is simple, yet profound. By emphasizing the child’s positive behavior, giving no energy to negative behavior, and setting strict consequences for breaking the rules, children begin to respond to the love and consistency offered The Nurtured Heart Approach (NHA) is designed to empower parents to shift intense behaviors and ignite success immediately and easily

I will speak about the approach and how it has impacted my life and then go through step by step teaching of the approach. I use many stories and examples to get the audience to understand and relate to the process and why children continually act out and break rules and once the adult understands, they are better equipped to institute a new way of looking for the non-rule breaking behaviors. Parents who take my class are thrilled to learn the approach and can't wait to go home and try it out!
I will work with the parent or group to teach the tools to help energize successes while giving no energy to negativity. This approach works very quickly and adults should see immediate results.
I’m a mom of a very intense child. I had tried multiple programs including: doctors, classes on parenting, books on child behavior, medications, special diets, allergists, chiropractors, homeopaths, you name it! I never thought this would be the career path that I would choose, but once I started using the approach I saw such a shift in behaviors that I knew I wanted to help other parents who were in a similar situation.
I believe that the Nurtured Heart Approach seamlessly creates an environment in which children are able to flourish. Plus it works without sticker charts, timeout chairs, or medications. As a wife and mother, I use this approach with my own children and am confident of the transformation it has in families and classrooms.
I became certified to teach the approach by training with the top two Nurtured Heart Specialists in the country. I will give you the tools you need to change the behaviors in your home. My coaching helps take you through the ups and downs of learning the approach and become clearer in implementing it.
I’m committed to The Nurtured Heart Approach because it has been life changing in my family.
My son is a very spirited child, and I had tried for years to get a handle on his behavior through doctors, medications, elimination diets, allergists, therapists, etc. It was only this summer, when I read the book, "Transforming the Difficult Child, The Nurtured Heart Approach", that I started to see a significant decrease in his negative behaviors.
The approach worked almost instantly and over the next few months, I worked with a trainer fromTexas who guided me in using the tools to help me in energizing the positive and building "inner wealth" of my son while watching his negative behaviors decrease significantly.
