Pediatric Therapy
Colleen specializes in self-regulation and helps children learn to be more aware of how they feel, choose adaptive responses, and feel better throughout the day! Sessions are highly individualized, use evidence-based interventions, and focus on supporting the child’s independence in various areas of life. These sessions tend to take place in person, whether in-home, at-school, or in a clinic environment. Colleen’s pediatric self-regulation workbook, My Feelings Workbook, will be provided to help your child develop independent emotional-regulation skills!
These sessions are great for children who:
Have “big feelings” • Experience challenges calming down when upset • Have challenges with personal space and safety • Experience heightened sensory and emotional responses • Have challenges with transitions and participating in various daily routines and activities • Experience challenges with independent self-regulation and often require adult assistance when upset
Parent Coaching
Are you looking for support with how you regulate yourself and respond during challenging moments? Parenting doesn’t come with a handbook, and many (if not all) of us modern-day adults did not learn how to regulate and care for our own emotions in childhood. Colleen helps bridge this gap by providing you with all the strategies, concepts, and in-the-moment practice to help you feel more empowered as you experience challenges with your child. Parent coaching follows many of the concepts outlined in Colleen’s adult self-regulation book, How to Lovingly Set a Firm Boundary. Additional content is provided through the adult self-regulation course, How to Lovingly Set a Firm Boundary: The Course. Parent coaching can be standalone or combined with your child’s sessions. Various packages available.
This is perfect for:
Adults who feel like they’ve tried everything and are looking for long-term solutions based on nervous system regulation and love • Those who have read the books, seen the content, and want individualized, in-the-moment strategies that work for your family • Adults who want to have a greater understanding of their child and learn what drives their behavior.
Family OT
Colleen is excited to announce “Family OT”! This is an innovative approach that combines both pediatric support and parent coaching. In these sessions, parents are involved as active participants, and there is an equal emphasis on parent support and training. In addition to your child learning independent self-regulation skills, you will learn, with Colleen’s guidance, how to prepare your own regulation and manage any challenging experience that may come up. You can feel supported as you are provided with evidence-based interventions and highly individualized, in-the-moment strategies. In addition to the in-person sessions, remote parent coaching services are offered to further your learning between appointments.
This is perfect for:
Parents who want in-the-moment strategies that work for their family • Families who have self-regulation challenges in the home environment and don’t know where to begin • Families wanting loving, long-term solutions for challenges in the home environment
Other Areas We Address
