KATIE'S STORY

 

 I’m a therapist, a Behavior Consultant, and an Executive Function Strategist, Educator & Coach. I’ve been working with kids and families for almost 20 years. Very early in my career, it became obvious to me that helping the most challenged kiddos was going to be my life’s greatest work.

Families were showing up to my office having tried everything. Nothing seemed to be a lasting solution for things like defiance, tantrums, lying, emotional dysregulation, trouble with peers, and academic underperformance. 

This forced me to dive deeper into what we therapists had been taught--and in turn, the advice commonly given to parents about their children. Conventional 'wisdom' was not holding up. 'Have more structure, show 'em who's boss, you can't let them get away with that! Let them fail...they'll learn.' 

I swore I'd never talk about a sticker chart...ever again.  

And I've held to that conviction. I spent the next decade figuring out why these things didn't work. But most importantly, I learned what to do instead. 

I'd be happy to teach you all about it.

 

IT WASN'T ALWAYS EASY

 I have a deep and personal understanding of what a lot of my clients are dealing with. From the moment I brought my son, James, home from the hospital at 4 days old, I knew he was going to whip me into shape as a parent. I wasn’t surprised when he was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 4. Because he was trying to manage many lagging skills, he presented me with challenging behavior I had really only seen in my work with families professionally. My daughter, Ellie, was hanging on for the ride. As I tried to manage the situation at home, I was showing up to my work in therapy with families feeling at a complete loss. It was then that I understood--first hand--what so many of my clients were going through. I knew I had to figure out a different way to help families, especially my own. 

 

So I did. 

 

I'D LOVE TO PASS ALONG WHAT HAS ALLOWED ME TO HELP THOUSANDS OF FAMILIES OVER THE PAST DECADE, INCLUDING MY OWN.

“Katie has changed our lives, I have no idea what I would've done without her help. My son (9th grade) is really bright and has so much potential. When I found Katie, he had one B, and the rest of his grades were D's and F's. He couldn't even tolerate me talking about school and homework--let alone letting me help him. Katie taught me how to help him get back on track. Most importantly, she helped my relationship with my son improve tremendously.  I'm so grateful."

“I've developed so many skills during my time working with Katie. I was so mad on the first day because I didn't want anyone's help. I've had therapists and coaches try to help before. I thought Katie would just be another one to add to the list. But it turned out to be the complete opposite!! I look forward to seeing her, and I'm actually sad that I don't really need coaching anymore.”

"Katie helped us see the beauty and the light in our son. We had gotten so wrapped up in how difficult his behavior had become, we forgot how to see him as the miraculous human that he truly is. She walked us through everything...and held us accountable, which we needed. She's kind and patient, but she is straight up and honest. I'm sure the trajectory of our family has completely changed."

-Anne, Marketing Executive & Mom
