She helps parents of young and grade school-aged children learn how to manage meltdowns, childhood anxiety, challenges with friends and siblings, academic bumps-in-the-road, and the various array of other typical childhood issues.

Perhaps of most importance is the fact that everything Susan teaches has been “tested” as she has raised her now 17-year old son, who is still joyful, resilient, authentic…and appropriately cool with his Mom!
