the managing meltdowns academy

less than 3 hours to a more regulated home.

For when the meltdowns feel all consuming…

When you can see the change in your kid’s eyes and suddenly, seemingly out of nowhere, they’re in the midst of a full-blown, level 10 meltdown.

AND YOUR MIND STARTS RACING, TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW IN THE WORLD TO SUPPORT THEM IN THAT MOMENT.

Now imagine that you know exactly what to do. And what else you could do. And even another option after that.

Imagine feeling empowered to support your kid AND to keep yourself regulated.

Imagine losing your sh*t just a little bit less, feeling more in control in those moments, & not having to always feel sh*tty about how it went down.

AND THE CHERRY ON TOP?

WHILE YOU FEEL LESS REACTIVE & MORE IN CONTROL, YOU’LL SIMULTANEOUSLY BE HELPING TO DEVELOP YOUR KID’S EMOTIONAL REGULATION SKILLS.

  • you find yourself yelling, bribing, taking things away, etc in those big moments AND this isn’t the parent you want to be

  • you’re looking for support around HOW YOU can better support your kid in those moments… after all, you’re the one in it with them.

  • you keep doing “what you’re supposed to” and it’s just not working, or even escalates your kid (“i can validate their emotions for hours and it doesn’t seem to do ANYTHING.”)

  • you find yourself at a loss of what to do when your kid is melting down in the middle of the store. or the park. or a restaurant. or at home. or anywhere else.

  • you just want to feel a little lighter, a little less on edge in your own home (guess what, your kid does too).

  • you’re ready to be the parent you want to be, that you thought you’d be.

MMA is for you if:

  • I’ll be straight with you… I’m not going to say that this means you’ll never have to deal with a meltdown again. I’m not going to say that you’ll never lose your sh*t again.

    We’re human. We’re all learning and growing and evolving, and we are going to have moments of big, overwhelming emotion in our lives.

    Meltdowns happen.

    Dysregulation happens. It’s part of being alive.

    But imagine being in a space where those big emotions didn’t feel all consuming. A space where you had the capacity and the knowledge to intentionally support your kid in developing their emotional regulation skills.

    So I’m here to tell you that a more regulated household, where everyone loses their sh*t just a little bit less, is possible.

    let's get there together

what’s included

✳

  • Listen… I get it. One of the most frustrating things is feeling like your kid’s behavior makes no sense. And these modules are about making sense of those behaviors through an understanding of what is happening inside their body… both in their brain and the activation of their nervous system. Because with that, when the behaviors suddenly make sense, we can have a bit more compassion and simultaneously know what we can do to support them.

    By exploring and understanding what is going on inside your kid’s body in those difficult moments, so that we can begin to understand what we can do to support them.

✳

  • We’ll deep dive into the concept of regulation - both for yourself and your child. By understanding these concepts, we can begin to piece together an intentional response to meltdowns. One in which you are more able to stay regulated, and therefore be intentional about the way you are responding to meltdowns. One in which you have ideas and strategies of what to do in those big, overwhelming moments. One in which you begin to feel empowered to support your kid through their big emotions…so that their emotions don’t have to feel as big.

✳

  • If you have no idea how to support a meltdown, find yourself repeating generational cycles, or just worry nothing you do is helping, this will be your favorite section yet. This is the section of the academy in which you will learn HOW to respond. Through our work here, you will walk away with a toolbox of strategies, so that you know EXACTLY how to support a meltdown in a way you feel good about, and have ideas and strategies of how to switch things up when you find yourself starting to lose your cool. You will learn the ins and outs of responding to a meltdown in a way that helps to keep you regulated and intentional, so that you can teach your kid how to navigate those rough waters.

Don’t just take my word for it…

  • "once I started, I just didn't want to stop! I wanted to keep going and learn more. I recognize the work you put into this course and it will be well worth the price. It was a great experience overall!"

  • "This course is great and SO needed!"

Course FAQ

  • While I specialize in working with younger children in my play therapy practice, I’m not working with your child in this course (& I’m not providing therapy)! The information contained in this course is an understanding of the HUMAN brain and nervous system, and as such, can be applied to any age (I mean in a chunk of the course I ask you to apply the info to yourself). While things may look different with different aged kiddos, the information can help inform our responses regardless. So all that to say, this course goes a whole lot deeper than just “do it like exactly as I tell you.”

  • Absolutely! The course is not meant to be shared (& I’d very much appreciate you not doing so), AND when you purchase the course, it is yours to use to support your child or children! That means feel free to have your child’s support team complete the course (parents/caregivers, nanny/babysitter, grandparents). When it comes to people outside of your child’s direct support system, if you loved the course, please feel free to pass along the discount code “FRIEND” and they will get 8% off their own purchase of MMA!

  • You’ll have lifetime access to the course. Better yet, I’ll add and update topics over time so the course will continue to evolve and grow.

  • This course is about learning and applying information and skills that create personal growth, both for your child and yourself. I whole-heartedly believe that life is a never-ending journey of growth and self-improvement, and that you and your child will learn and grow from the information in the course. That being said, growth is a personalized journey that never looks the same for any two people. Therefore, I do not offer refunds under any circumstances.

Sick of losing it on your kid & then feeling sh*tty about how you handled it?

Because parenting advice should support your well-being as well
