Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of behaviors do people seek support with?
All kinds! Tantrums, yelling, hitting, spitting, struggling to share, transitions, school behavior, behavior between siblings, mealtime behavior, “talking back” and angry tones, bedtime routines, and more. There is no issue too small or too big that we can’t problem solve around together.
What ages do you work with?
I typically support children ages 2-6.
Will you meet with my child directly?
As a parent-facing coaching service, I typically meet with parents or caretakers who share details about their child’s behavior and then put the strategies we plan into practice themselves. If we feel like an observation is warranted, we can discuss that on a case-by-case basis.
Do you only work with local families?
Nope! I am available to support nationally. We are able to connect and do the behavior consult virtually which allows me to work with anyone!
If I am local, will we meet in person?
This is up to you! Most families prefer to do the consults over Zoom to best accommodate their work and childcare schedules, particularly when both parents want to participate. If you’d rather meet in person locally, we can absolutely coordinate to do so.
Are you a child psychologist?
I am not. I am a certified behavior specialist, longtime educator, and early learning coach. I do not have clinical experience or training. If your pediatrician has recommended clinical support please seek a referral from their offices.
