That’s exactly why I created “How To Handle Tantrums and Meltdowns” to help you stop feeling frustrated, lost or doubting yourself, and start feeling calm and confident as you use a proven method for getting your child back on track.
I know firsthand what it’s like to struggle with kids with strong emotions. I’m a mom, and my kids are 13 and 17.
One of my kids is very strong willed. She would get defiant and intensely upset when she didn’t get her way.
I tried everything I could think of to help her calm down.
Nothing worked until I leaned back on my background of seventeen years in counseling and leadership training and used an approach, backed by research, that got her to relax within minutes.
This same approach now works for my clients as well.
As a parent coach, I’ve worked with hundreds of parents of toddlers to teens to resolve conflicts and struggles with their kids, so everyone in your family can get along better, and you can enjoy your time with your kids.
Here’s how we can give your child what they need to flourish:
Over 4 weeks, we’ll collaborate to create a plan that works for you.
Every family is different and that’s why you receive a customized plan dedicated to the specific needs of your family.
We do this in 4, one-hour, personalized, weekly calls where you get the specific tools you need to calm your child when they’re upset and prevent future meltdowns.
The tools you learn will work now and as your child grows. You’ll have skills to use with your child for the rest of your life!

If you have questions in between sessions, you can email me, so you don’t have to wait.

Testimonials:
“Acknowledging my daughter’s feelings has made such a big difference! I can help her calm down when she starts getting upset and she isn’t going in to full blow tantrums anymore. This skill is everything! I will do this forever. I’m so grateful I learned this from you.”
“My kid went from crazy to calm and a joy to be around. The parenting tools I learned from Sharon were invaluable. And, with Sharon’s help, I worked on myself too. I’m so much calmer in my parenting now. Changing me changed my son. ”
“I’d read all the parenting books and liked the theory, but the disconnect was putting it into practice. Between our long work hours and the kids not listening unless we yelled, everything felt like it was constantly too much. Sharon’s support, encouragement and suggestions helped me stop yelling and feel proud of my parenting. My kids finally listen now! Sharon is so easy to talk to and helps you find solutions that fit you and your family. I can’t recommend her enough! ”
