 Parenting Consultations

 
Looking for simple, concrete, and effective parenting strategies,
customized for your family's unique dynamics and needs?

Family life does not have to be
a constant power struggle!

I can help you tackle anything ... even the tough stuff like getting your baby to sleep,
parenting your teenager, sharing joint custody with an uncooperative ex,
or dealing with your child's most challenging or difficult behaviors.

Consultations can take place in your home, by phone, or by email.
 
 

 

Telephone consultations are $60/hr.

Brief follow up by phone and email is included at no additional charge.
Contact karen@advice-for-parents.com to set up an appointment.
 
Payment is requested in advance.
 
 
 
An email consultation includes two emails, and costs $50.
 
Perfect for parents who have trouble finding the time to connect by phone
at a reasonable hour, or find the process of writing to be therapeutic.
 
Simply send me a description of your issue of concern, and I will respond with
detailed insights and suggestions within 24 hours of receiving your payment through Paypal.

Then write back with your follow-up questions, and I'll email a second response.
Clients tell me they really appreciate having everything in writing for future reference.
 
 
 
 
 
In person sessions are billed at $75/hr.

If you are in the Boulder area, we can meet in person.
We could talk over tea, walk the Boulder Creek Path,
hike in the foothills, or meet in your home or office.

If you'd like me to observe you with your kids,
let's spend some time together at the park or in your home.

 

 
Hourly rates are billed in 15 minute increments.

Evening and weekend appointments are available.

If you need to cancel an appointment, 24 hours notice is appreciated.

from a mother in Colorado:
 
I feel like the work we have been doing with you has been enormously helpful for us as parents, us as a family, and for our son.

I feel myself shifting and using better,  more effective and more peaceful strategies with all the kids. It has been life transforming.
