Developing a warm, loving relationship is key to setting the stage for future success. You CAN get your child to cooperate through connection and compassion, without resorting to bribery, yelling or hitting.
I am proud to be one of the only Peaceful Parenting coaches trained by AhaParenting.com founder Dr. Laura Markham. I teach a model of loving guidance with practical strategies tailored to your circumstances to help get you and your family back on track.

Depression and Anxiety
Pregnancy and new parenthood can bring conflicting emotions to the surface. Postpartum Depression is the number one complication following childbirth, and is very treatable. I work with pregnant and postpartum parents to ensure new families get off to the best possible start.

@oliviabergeron This meeting was a joint presentation by Olivia Bergeron, a psychotherapist and parent coach, and Dr. Robert Shire, a chiropractor, on addressing the physical and mental health challenges that ...many parents experience. Dr. Shire explained how stress manifests physically in parents, particularly in the form of back pain, neck tension, headaches, and jaw issues, and described his approach to treating these symptoms by addressing the underlying causes rather than just masking pain with medication. Olivia shared strategies for managing stress and anxiety, including scheduled decompression time, breathing exercises, body-first grounding techniques, and recognizing physical symptoms as signals that need attention. They discussed the importance of finding providers who understand the unique stress of parenting and can address both physical and mental health needs. The presentation concluded with Olivia offering a new coaching program designed to help parents address specific challenges in a focused way.Show More
