Coaching

A Mother is the heartbeat of the home.

She is regulated.

She is calm.

She is confident.

But these qualities aren’t just something she is was born with. They were skills she is taught, just like cooking or doing the laundry.

Traditionally it was the women in the “village” that held new mothers through their transition into motherhood.

Mothers today are lost. The women in their life are dysregulated and disconnected from themselves.

That’s why I began coaching.

Coaching is a space for you to unlearn, grow, and transform into the mother you thought you’d be.

Many of us thought that motherhood was intuitive. That we would just “know” how to be there for our child.

The “knowing” doesn’t come without confidence.

Confidence is built through experience and deeply knowing ourselves.

So without a village and being disconnected from ourselves, we can not become the regulated and calm mother (our children need).

In our sessions, I will facilitate the education and calming energy you need for self-discovery. With each layer you uncover, you will be held while you navigate your inner journey.

Hey There! I’m Alexis.

A mama x2, Certified Parent Coach and research junkie.

My journey into motherhood was messy. Both my daughters were unexpected NICU babies and my second was diagnosed with a rare congenital heart defect.

I found myself 9 Months postpartum with babies 23 months a part… and I was drowning in motherhood. Most of my days were spent feeling rage and not knowing what to do with it. I really thought I missed my calling….

So, I did the only thing that felt logical. I went back to school to fix my daughter’s “naughty” behavior- only to find out I was the problem. I’d never been taught how to be regulated or calm. My go-to coping tool was to stuff the anger down until I exploded.

This opened my eyes to a completely new world. For the first time in my life I could relax, think clearly, and hear my own intuition.

I promised myself that IF i found healing I would try to help EVERY mother that struggled with anger and rage.

That’s how I became a parent coach.

FAQs

Therapy vs. Coaching?

Coaching and therapy can be beautifully woven together when done side by side. Some of the most amazing magic happens when a client works with both a therapist and coach.

Each professional is trained for very different purposes, but both make a huge impact on how you process and move through life.

Coaching is where we will explore the root causes to help you process, so that you can discover how to move forward. This is a future focused approach where we will set intentions and make actionable plans to reach your goals.

Therapy is focused on the WHY behind the way things are with the intention of finding healing in the future. This is about looking into the past to make sense of your current situation. These professionals are trained to access, diagnose, and treat those with mental health illnesses.

What parenting style do you use?

I’m trained in a Parent Centric approach. Meaning that when mama is regulated and is confident in who she is.. she is able to intuitively parent.

What’s your stance on punishments?

I do not believe that punishment is an effective way to raise children. This means no spanking, hitting, time outs, yelling, shaming…. but if you want to stop doing these things that’s what I’m here for!

Will you help me stop my child’s naughty behavior?

Coaching isn’t for correcting a child, it’s about learning why this is triggering for a parent. Our goal isn’t to control the child, rather it’s to understand the root of the behavior. As you begin understanding nervous system regulation and prioritize connection, your child’s behavior will be a byproduct of all this beautiful work.
