Client Stories

Emily, Stepmom of 2

“Nina is not only a life-long friend but a parenting professional that I trust. I didn’t hesitate to contact her when faced with some challenges as a new step parent. She was very transparent about the strategies she uses to inspire dialogue, insight, and reflection. This made me feel prepared to begin our work together and I knew what to expect. She never told me what to think or do, but created space for me to discover what I believe to be the choices I should make as a parent. She poses thoughtful questions to help you think through your beliefs. I felt empowered, invigorated, and ready to take the next steps we discussed. I was surprised because in the past, counseling/coaching sessions have left me feeling drained and tired. I would highly recommend her to parents at all stages of the parenting journey!”

Laura, mom of 2

“Before working with Nina I wasn't aware of the power of parent coaching. In my first session she helped me process, understand, and create a plan for THREE different concerns I had. I left her office feeling calmer, more confident, and supported in my parenting journey. I would recommend Nina's parent coaching support to any and all parents/guardians/caregivers!”

Gina, mom/stepmom of 3

“I got so much from our time together I can’t stop thinking about it. Nina is such an active listener, finding the perfect balance between letting me ‘get it all out’ and challenging me to pause and rethink my same old thought processes with a new angle. I leave our conversations feeling empowered and inspired and, most importantly, good enough. My son, my husband, and I are clearly benefiting.”

Katie, Mom/stepmom of 2

“Our experience working with Nina was beyond what I could have hoped for. She created a warm, supportive environment that allowed both me and my partner to discuss our individual concerns. She provided just the right amount of structure and guidance. She is incredibly knowledgeable and I appreciate her realistic and gentle approach. Our time with Nina left us feeling like we had a tool set to tackle our concerns, I cannot recommend Nina enough.”

Erin, Mom Of 2

“Nina really helped my husband and I to look at our kids knowing they live a unique reality compared to ours, and to not except them to have the mentality of an adult. We feel better equipped to handle this challenging time (sheltering in place during COVID 19). If you’re struggling at home with kiddos, how you react in tough moments, or any other challenges, reach out to her!”

Kelly, mom/stepmom of 4

“When my daughter started having panic attacks, I felt so helpless—I didn't know what to do or how to help. Nina helped me outline what was happening, and some action steps to help my kiddo right away. I left our first session with tears in my eyes because I was so relieved!”

Aneela, Mom of 2

“I can't thank you enough for helping us (me) find a better place with all this parenting stuff. Your sessions have really brought clarity to my actions/responses to my children. A lot has happened (personally, as well as in the world) since we stopped our sessions, but you helped me build a solid foundation, so thank you!!!”

Alex, dad of 2

“I want to give a HUGE thanks to Nina for her kindness and professionalism. I was amazed at how she was able to hold a space for me to gain the clarity and confidence I needed to move forward. She’s helped me overcome my limiting beliefs and made me realize that I was more than I gave myself credit for. The best thing about working with her is that she had the ability to help me navigate overwhelming thoughts that now no longer exist. I've found a new state of confidence and certainty. I feel as though a huge weight has been lifted off my chest and shoulders. THANK YOU, Nina, you are such a gifted coach and I would highly recommend others to you in a heartbeat.”

Mary, Mom of 2

“I am so grateful to Nina for her support and guidance over these past several weeks. My husband and I gained so much from carving out time each week for group coaching. It was a truly valuable experience that has given us greater confidence and clarity when it comes to how we parent our two young children. Nina is a deep listener and an inspiring coach who helps her clients see the best in themselves and in their children. We feel so lucky to have worked with her!”

Margo, New Member of Partner’s Family of 4

“Thank you, Nina, for spending time coaching me around my fears of integrating myself into life with my partner's children. You expertly helped me identify my fears as well as giving me some much needed guidance around letting the kids be with their feelings no matter how big they are. This piece really helped me see how I can show up and do my part to help them adjust as well as knowing my big feelings are also welcome in me. I felt safe and supported right from the start and I feel like I now have tools onboard to make this a smoother transition. So Grateful!”
