Nervous System Parenting Coaching
When You Love Your Child More Than Anything—But Keep Losing Yourself in the Hard Moments
You saw it coming.
The tone in their voice. The defiance. The refusal.
And you felt it—that heat rising in your chest, your jaw clenching, your breath getting shallow.
You knew you were about to lose it.
And you did.
You yelled. You said things you regret. You felt your body take over, like you were watching yourself from the outside, powerless to stop it.
Afterward, the guilt crashed in.
"Why did I do that again?"
"What is wrong with me?"
"I'm damaging my kid."
Here's what nobody tells you:
This is your nervous system is doing exactly what it was wired to do when it feels unsafe, unsupported, or overwhelmed.
And we can help you change that.
This Isn't About Trying Harder. It's About Understanding What's Actually Happening.
You've read the parenting books. You've listened to the podcasts. You know what you're "supposed" to do.
But in the moment—when your child is screaming, refusing, melting down—all of that knowledge disappears.
Because parenting isn't a thinking problem. It's a nervous system problem.
Your body is reacting before your brain has a chance to choose a different response. Your nervous system is stuck in patterns formed years ago—maybe from your own childhood, maybe from the exhaustion and overwhelm of right now.
The good news?
Your nervous system can learn new patterns. And when it does, everything changes.
Not because you're "doing better." Because you're feeling different in your body when the hard moments hit.
What Is Nervous System Parenting?
Nervous system parenting is about learning to regulate yourself so you can show up as the parent you want to be—even when your child is completely dysregulated.
It's not about:
Suppressing your emotions
Being calm 100% of the time
Never making mistakes
Becoming a "perfect" parent
It IS about:
Recognizing your body's signals before you explode
Building capacity to stay grounded when everything feels chaotic
Interrupting old patterns that no longer serve you
Co-regulating with your child instead of escalating with them
Repairing when you do lose it (because you will—we all do)
Parenting from wholeness instead of survival mode
This work changes you from the inside out.
And when you change, your child's world changes too.
The Six Pillars of Nervous System Parenting
Nervous System Mapping
Learn to recognize your body's stress signals before they hijack your parenting. That tightness in your chest? The shallow breathing? The clenched jaw? Those are your early warning system. We teach you to notice them and intervene before the explosion happens.
Intuitive Boundaries
Your body knows what's a yes and what's a no. Learn to set boundaries from your somatic wisdom, not from fear, guilt, or what someone else told you to do. This is about trusting yourself again.
Repair & Reconnection
When you've already lost it (because you will), how do you come back? We give you the exact steps to repair with your child and restore connection—without shame, without groveling, without losing your authority.
Somatic Anchoring
Ground yourself in your body when chaos erupts. Simple, practical tools that bring you back to center in moments of overwhelm. These aren't "calm down" techniques—they're neurological reset tools that actually work.
Co-Regulation
Your regulated nervous system becomes your child's safe harbor. You don't have to fix them, calm them down, or make it better. You just have to stay steady. We teach you how to be their anchor when they're lost at sea.
Rewiring Old Patterns
Move beyond your childhood programming. Identify the generational patterns you're repeating and use your body's wisdom to parent from wholeness instead of wounding. This is the deep work that creates lasting change.
From Survival Mode to Regulated Presence
This Is For You If...
✨ You're exhausted by parenting "strategies" that feel disconnected from who you actually are
✨ You know you're repeating patterns from your own childhood, even when you swore you wouldn't
✨ You feel like you're surviving parenthood instead of thriving in it
✨ You snap at your kids, then spend the rest of the day drowning in guilt
✨ Your child's big emotions trigger your big emotions, and suddenly everyone is dysregulated
✨ You want to trust your instincts but they feel buried under anxiety and overwhelm
✨ You're ready to parent from your center rather than from fear, guilt, or comparison
✨ You believe in your child's inherent wholeness and want to reconnect with yours too
If any of these feel painfully familiar, you're in the right place.
What Parents Say About This Work
“I used to think I just had anger issues. Now I understand it was my nervous system protecting me the only way it knew how. Learning to regulate myself has completely changed my relationship with my kids and with myself.”
“The moment I stopped trying to ‘fix’ my daughter’s meltdowns and just stayed present with her, everything shifted. I finally get what co-regulation actually means”
“I was following in the footsteps of my parents and was very unhappy with the dad I had become. After taking this class, I feel like you’ve helped me become a better dad.”

Rooted in Science, Delivered with Heart
This work is grounded in:
✓ Polyvagal Theory — Understanding how your autonomic nervous system shapes your responses
✓ Attachment Science — Building secure connections through co-regulation
✓ Somatic Psychology — Using body-based practices to create lasting change
✓ Interpersonal Neurobiology — How relationships literally rewire our brains
✓ Trauma-Informed Practice — Honoring your story and your nervous system's survival strategies
This is neuroscience at work.
Your Children Don't Need You to Be Perfect
They need you to be regulated.
They need you to be present.
They need you to be human—making mistakes, repairing, trying again.
That's what we help you become.
Not a perfect parent. A grounded one.
Not a parent who never loses it. A parent who knows how to come back.
Not a parent who has it all figured out. A parent who trusts their own nervous system to guide them.
Ready to Come Home to Yourself?
Let's quiet the noise and reconnect you with the wise, regulated parent you already are.
You don't need to fix yourself. You need to understand yourself.
And from that understanding, everything changes.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
This is coaching, not therapy. We focus on building practical nervous system regulation skills and parenting tools rather than processing past trauma (though we honor how your past shapes your present). If you need therapeutic support, I'm happy to provide referrals.
-
Most parents start noticing shifts within 3-4 sessions, but deeper pattern work takes time. I recommend a minimum commitment of 6 sessions to see meaningful, lasting change. This isn't a quick fix—it's a transformation.
-
Absolutely. Nervous system work is relevant at every age. The principles are the same whether you're parenting a 3-year-old or a 16-year-old. Your nervous system regulation matters at every stage.
-
You can still do this work and create significant change in your family. Often, when one parent shifts, the whole family system shifts. That said, I offer couples sessions if both partners want to work on co-regulation together.
-
No. This is for any parent who feels disconnected from themselves or their child. Maybe you shut down instead of yell. Maybe you people-please. Maybe you're anxious and hovering. All of these are nervous system responses, and all of them can shift.
-
Yes! Many of my clients are in therapy. This work complements therapeutic support beautifully. We focus on practical, in-the-moment regulation tools while therapy addresses deeper healing.
