After years of work as a special educator, school leader, and learning specialist, the transformational world of parent coaching found me. I’ve pulled together my experiences helping parents manage challenging behaviors, navigate a disability, provide the right support for their child, and be the parent they want to be. I’ve developed a process, using the PCI framework, that helps parents increase their capacity, shift dynamics, and find practical solutions that allow for confident and joyful parenting.

My parent coaching process has the power to help you navigate parenting challenges big and small, ongoing or temporary. We can discover ways to address challenging behaviors, big feelings, and poor self-regulation. We’ll develop ways to support your child’s neurodiversity, ADHD, or other learning disability. My process can help your family navigate a big transition, solve sleep struggles, or conquer battles with technology. Parent coaching helps you nourish relationships and set up systems that allow all family members to thrive. My approach is values-aligned, strengths-based, and places you and your family at the center.

What Parents Say After Coaching With Me

Tara transformed my relationship to parenting. And in it she brought healing and closeness to our family by coaching me and my ex-husband together. She is the kind of steady, compassionate, solutions oriented partner I’ve always needed in parenting and struggled to find in books and influencers. I can’t imagine a more worthy investment towards your day to day happiness, functioning and the future well being of your family.

Before working with Tara, we were always second-guessing ourselves as parents while dealing with challenging situations. We felt like we were always reacting to everything, and nothing was really working. From our very first session, Tara listened and understood us. The advice was practical, and Tara was compassionate and always judgement free. We now feel more confident, and have strategies to use moving forward. We’re so glad we found Tara!
