So often, the mindset when children are facing a challenge or struggle is that there is a need for something in the child to change. We think this way because we are fearful for our kids. We fear that we are inadequate and have passed on inadequacies to them. We love them and only want to help them.

In my practice with children, there is no need to bring about change in any child and there is no need to take a long hard look at the “problems” in order to “cure” them.

My work is about allowing the inner world--the inner self--of the child to emerge. The child comes into this world equipped with an inner self, which contains everything necessary to overcome difficulties and challenges. The inner self also contains the gifts and beauty that your child is meant to bring into this world.

My specialty is in being able to create space for, and recognize, the emergence of the child's inner self with skillful intentionality.

My method opens space for the inner self of the child to come forth in sparks of imagination, creativity, curiosity, courage, and compassion. Every child expresses these sparks uniquely because there is a unique nature about everyone of us.

When I see these sparks in your child, I kindle them. These sparks have healing qualities that are beyond our full comprehension and imagination. As children begin to experience their own sparks emerging from within themselves, they enter their natural lightness and release energies that are not for them to hold onto.

Coaching can benefit all children.

Your child may be experiencing a specific challenge, depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, trouble at school, academically, socially, or emotionally. Your child might be highly sensitive or spirited. They might tend toward shyness, nervousness, or become easily overwhelmed.

• You would like to see your child’s confidence blossom and inner gifts emerge.
• You want your child to be joyful in their own being.
• You wish to nourish your child’s inner creative potential.

The focused time and attention toward the inner sparks that comes through coaching creates a connection that brings about confidence, reassurance, comfort, and joy, not only to children, but to parents as well.

The effects of the healing inner sparks that are inside every child are long-lasting. Children are set on-course for a lifetime of growing awareness of the inner self, including the invaluable help and guidance that comes from that place within us.
