"We were in a very difficult place when we met Dr. Emily. She changed our life dramatically. We couldn't believe we weren't doing these strategies before." Parent of 7 & 9 year old
Meltdowns that escalate quickly and are hard to bring back down.
Listening, following directions, and everyday cooperation.
Hitting, kicking, or other physical aggression.
Homework routines that turn into a daily battle.
Morning or evening routines that fall apart every day.
Screen time limits that spark meltdowns and pushback.
Attention or focus challenges at home or school.
Behavioral challenges showing up in school.
Repeating your instructions over and over.
Two 1-on-1 sessions per month with Dr. Emily, plus two "office hours" sessions, group if other families attend, 1-on-1 if not.
A structured plan to deeper connection with your child and therefore listening, less conflict, and predictable routines that actually hold.
Exactly what to say and do when things go sideways, not generic advice, but scripts built for your family. You'll also have direct email contact with Dr. Emily throughout the month.
