Tell me...
âžœ Are you a deeply caring parent who’s done everything right on paper, but still feels like something’s off at home?
➜ Do you want more connection with your child... but your patience is running on fumes and the pushback has you second-guessing yourself?
âžœ Are you navigating big changes - a move, a loss, a divorce, a job shift - and trying to hold it together for everyone else, while secretly wondering, who’s holding me?
âžœ Have you caught yourself parenting from a script you don’t want to pass down... but feel unsure how to do it differently?
âžœ Do you crave steadiness and clarity - but can’t find your footing in this messy middle season of family life?
âžœ Are you telling yourself you should be able to “just handle it,” but instead feel tapped out, overwhelmed, or ashamed for struggling?
If any of this feels familiar... know you’re not alone.
And that you don’t have to figure it out without help, either.
What's a Breakthrough Call?
A Breakthrough Call is a completely complimentary 30–60 minute Zoom session. It's a pressure-free space to pause, reflect, and get clear on what’s really going on in your parenting journey right now.
You’ll complete a short intake form when you book. Choose a time that works for you and come as you are. No prep needed.
Here’s what we’ll do together:
✔ Reflect on what’s feeling hard in your home right now (especially the stuff that’s hard to say out loud)
✔ Clarify what ease, connection, and alignment could look like for you - no judgment, just support
✔ Identify your next 2–3 doable steps to move toward the kind of home life you want to create
You’ll leave this call feeling lighter, clearer, and more grounded - with real insight and momentum, even if we decide we’re not the right coaching match right now. This is simply a chance to check in with yourself, and feel seen in the process.
You’ve held space for everyone else. Let’s create some space for you.
What, Exactly, is Coaching?
Parent coaching is a transformative process that bridges the gap between how things feel in your home now - and how you want them to feel. As your certified coach, I bring decades of experience in child development, education, and family systems - but you bring the most important expertise: your lived experience and love for your children.
Together, we create space to reflect, realign, and take thoughtful action. I’ll ask questions that help you tune into your values, notice hidden patterns, and get curious about what’s driving behavior - theirs and yours.
Yes, I’ll offer tools, scripts, and creative strategies (especially from Positive Discipline, Inquiry-Based Learning, and Montessori). But at its core, this isn’t about “fixing” your parenting - it’s about helping you feel more grounded, clear, and connected.
Our work is rooted in accountability, empathy, and deep respect. You’ll be held gently - and stretched lovingly - as we build the kind of home life that feels like one you actually want to live in.
This isn’t about perfection.
It’s about choosing connection, even in the mess.
And having support as you do.
Why Me?
I’ve spent decades studying child development, teaching, guiding educators, and supporting parents around the world. But nothing shaped me like life itself.
​
I’ve lived the transitions that shake a family to its core:
-
A long separation and divorce
-
Two international moves (Korea to NY and vice versa)
-
Solo parenting
-
A heart-wrenching, unexpected loss
-
A full career reinvention - from teacher, to career and life transition coach, to parent coach.
I know what it feels like to question everything, including yourself and your "enoughness" as a parent and person. I also know what it's like to rise with a new sense of purpose and utter self-acceptance.
​
There’s no playbook for parenting through the messy middle of life. (And with our kids watching, the pressure can feel immense.) But there are wise, energy-saving, and compassionate ways forward that will help you and your child come through stronger for it.
And I’ve made it my life’s work to help families walk those paths with more clarity, connection, and confidence.
​
You don’t need to be perfect to lead with love.
You just need support, strategy, and space to rewire patterns that no longer serve you.
I’d be honored to help you find all three.
What can you expect?
The outcome is simple. You’ll walk away with a clear, personalized framework for parenting through middle childhood (ages 6-12) one that balances compassion with structure, and helps you feel more like yourself again at home.
We’ll build a calmer, more connected home life - not by adding more to your plate, but by helping you clarify your role, simplify your strategies, and reconnect with your vision.
You’ll go from feeling stuck in power struggles, anxiety, or self-doubt to:
— Knowing exactly how to respond (not react) in moments of pushback or disconnect
— Feeling confident about your parenting values and the role you’re meant to play
— Getting your kids on board with routines, transitions, and shared responsibilities
— Holding boundaries and staying emotionally connected, even during meltdowns or big feelings
— Creating a home rhythm that works, without perfection or burnout
All while building lifelong skills for co-creating your family culture, modeling emotional resilience, and leading with love (and limits) - especially in the messy middle moments.
How does it work?
Phase 1
The Connection Reset
We’ll get honest about what’s weighing on you, and build the clarity and capacity you need to lead with love - even when life’s messy.​
​
-
The Pushback Perspective Shift
-
Parenting Load Inventory
-
The “Name the Hard” Framework

-

-

​
This phase is about reclaiming your steadiness. Before we ask you to do more - we’ll create more capacity and clarity in you. This gives you the foundation to shift out of survival mode, deepen connection, and show up as the grounded leader your child needs - even in hard seasons.
Phase 2
Confident Alignment
With more clarity and capacity, now we shift to confidently aligning your parenting values, patterns, and communication style - so you can show up as the calm, connected leader your child trusts (and listens to).​

You’ll move from second-guessing or defaulting to old patterns to becoming a parent who leads with love, sets meaningful limits, and models growth. This is where your home life begins to feel more connected and more cooperative.
Phase 3
Strategy That Sticks
You’ve reclaimed your calm and clarified your values - now it’s time to create structure, routines, and support systems that match your family’s needs and strengthen connection over control.​

​
This phase is about living your aligned parenting style out loud - with warmth, steadiness, and strategies that actually stick. You’ll feel confident setting expectations, staying connected, and leading your family through the ups and downs with trust, not tension.

Love Them Louder: How to Stay Steady,
Connected, and Confident Through the Messy Middle of Parenting
An in-depth look at my 3 month 1:1 or 2:1 signature
online coaching program
Rachel, New Zealand
Alyssa is awesome in supporting parents to be the champions their children need. She has worked with us to help us level up in the way we support our children in their life and learning.
We learned that our parenting approach, particularly through times that were tricky and challenging can impact our children significantly. Having Alyssa reassure us, provide us with practical tools to engage more positively with our kids as well as offer our children practical assistance to meet learning challenges was the perfect mix of what our family needed.
Megan, North Carolina
Before working with Alyssa, I was in a major season of overwhelm —homeschooling two little girls and feeling completely stuck at a crossroads in my career. Clarity felt impossible when I barely had a moment to breathe.
From the start, our work gave me the space I didn’t know I needed. We built in intentional ‘Me Time,’ and my girls learned to play independently while I poured back into myself with meditation, journaling, even movement.
They loved it, and honestly, so did I. That calm and clarity helped me make confident career decisions and reminded me that nurturing myself helps me show up as an even better mama. No guilt. Just gratitude - and a more peaceful home.
Viv, New York
Alyssa helped me see things from a totally new perspective when it came to my daughter’s friendships after a move. We talking through what healthy, positive friendships look like and how my daughter should feel around the right kinds of friends.
Alyssa has a way of guiding you with compassion, clarity, and so much insight. I left our conversation feeling more confident and grounded as a parent.
You might be thinking: Can I really spend money on parenting support right now?
​
But let’s reframe that with a few honest questions…
​
What would it be worth to:
— Stop dreading the after-school hours and start enjoying time with your child again?
— Feel confident setting limits without guilt, and know your kids still feel loved and safe?
— Drop the second-guessing and finally trust your instincts — even when they push back?
— Know that you’re not just “managing behavior,” but building the foundation for lifelong connection at a crucial turning point.
​
What would it be worth to parent through life’s hardest chapters - divorce, career change, loss, transition - with steadiness, clarity, and real support?

You're Here for a Reason

There will never be a better time than today to begin again - with support, structure, and a renewed sense of self.
