Who i am

When my daughter was born and she was placed in my arms, one of the first thoughts that came to me was, “What do I do now?!”

Luckily, I have a clear idea of the type of parent that I want to be. While I still have my doubts (because what parent doesn’t?), I know deep down that what I’m doing is aligned with what I want for myself, for my children and for our relationship.

As a parenting coach, I help you do the same. I guide you into finding the confidence within you to be the parent you want to be.

What people are saying

We conducted our session with Denise as a family and it was very insightful. She was able to open up our eyes to both similarities and differences we had within our unit that we were not aware of. By the end of the session we were able to productively come up with common values we can now implement as a family.

We recently had some sessions with Denise for our 4 year old son. We had some concerns about our different parenting styles and how we handled challenging situations differently (and were perhaps confusing our son). We also wanted to discuss how we approached matters like diversity, race, gender with him to make sure we were on the same page and giving him the right messages so he grows up to be respectful and open to all kinds of people and situations. Denise was super helpful in listening to us and giving us useful and practical tips. Totally recommend her services.

I have just finished my 12 session package with Denise and it has been such a rewarding process for me and family. She helped me move from a position of 'not enough' to 'good enough' - which in turn allowed for creativity and joy to find its way in again to our day to day routine and family time. She has offered me so much support and empathy and was able to illuminate areas of need that I felt too busy and overwhelmed to notice myself. She has supported us from pandemic days of all being in the house all the time to both my kids starting school/ preschool and let me know she was always available even between sessions for support and guidance, thank you infinitely Denise,

Denise is so passionate about positive parenting. She is a great group facilitator, creating a comfortable and dynamic environment. She’s good at walking through problem solving steps to find what solutions work best for everyone. A very practical, applicable course.

Our sessions with Denise helped us to come to a mutual understanding of the foundation from which we choose to raise our family. we got clear on our family goals and our family values. Having this clear helps navigate the difficult moments that having two kids under two can bring up. I notice myself daily come back to our family values and this helps me stay grounded and communicate clearly with the kids. I have also found the process improved our relationship as Denise was so good at holding space for us to have conversations we wouldn’t normally have as a couple.

The level of coaching I experienced with Denise was to a very high standard. More specifically everything she discusses with you is said without judgement and very thoughtfully worded. She has encouraged me to be mindful of my relationship with my partner by delving into and trying to solve any issues I might be having bit by bit which makes any problems I might be having less overwhelming and more manageable to deal with. She has also been a really good figure of support and helped me to be confident in the knowledge that I can take control of and change elements of my life if I want to. I would thoroughly recommend her as a life coach!
