Heal the parent, heal the family, heal the child

How Conscious Parenting Coaching can help you, the parent, to help your child.


Many parents and families are at their limit and the waiting lists at child psychotherapy and psychiatry practices are long. Not just here in Germany, but all around the world. That's why my doors are always open to the parents. As a Conscious Parenting Coach, I am here to support parents to support their child. Together we can get to many of the root causes of emotional imbalances and deeper anxieties that lie behind the child's current behaviour and mental health.


I invite you to consider this: When a child has an issue, it's often a reflection of a deeper issue within the family dynamic, not just the child. I say this with the greatest compassion and respect for the toughest job we will face in our lives: being a mum or dad. We are all under great pressure and live in a fast-paced culture of achievement, competition, and outward appearances - which is increasingly taking place in a digitalised, disconnected world ruled by social media and algorithms. It's stressful for us, it's stressful for the kids. Running beneath these tensions are our own patterns and conditioned behaviours that we bring from our own families and childhood. It's not about placing blame, but about understanding cause and effect and taking responsibility.


Healing a child requires healing the environment they're in, and this is where I am passionate about supporting parents. Without helping the family as a whole, I believe therapy for the child alone cannot be truly effective.


It's all about connection


I see it time and again in my practice: when the parents do the work towards greater self-awareness and development, the whole dynamic changes. When the parents shift, the child shifts too. It's a beautiful process to witness.


Conscious Parenting Coaching is about becoming the best version of ourselves so that our children can become their most authentic, whole selves. This is the greatest gift we can give to a child. The bonus? More calm, more connection, more inner peace for parents and in all their relationships.


I believe we are here on this earth not just to survive, but to thrive. And I'm here to help parents and kids flourish.
