Positive discipline
Move your parenting from chaos to calm
Positive Discipline is a program developed by Dr. Jane Nelsen. It is based on the work of Alfred Adler and Rudolf Dreikurs and designed to teach young people to become responsible, respectful and resourceful members of their communities. Positive Discipline teaches important social and life skills in a manner that is deeply respectful and encouraging for both children and adults.
Recent research tells us that children are hardwired from birth to connect with others, and that children who feel a sense of connection to their community, family, and school are less likely to misbehave. To be successful, contributing members of their community, children must learn necessary social and life skills.
It is for parents and caregivers who are looking for research-based effective tools that will encourage children to think for themselves, become more responsible, and have greater respect for themselves and for others.
Positive Discipline parenting tools teach valuable social and life skills that promote kindness and firmness which help parents and caregivers get to the core of the child’s misbehavior, bringing more joy into the home and offering a sense of accomplishment to both the parent/caregiver and the child.

I am a trained clinical pharmacist and mom to twin toddlers. I love studying and learning about parenting and it is my goal to bring the best of the different paradigms to you. In my private practice I work with individuals, couples, parents, families and youth. In addition to coaching and consultations, I offer educational workshops and classes that provide tools to help empower parents on their journey to better relationships with their children and with each other. I am available to speak at events as well as offer group services.
