"I absolutely love Kristen’s approach to supporting parents. She connects to everyone with an effervescent energy that lights up the room and engages the crowd. Kristen has a gift for validating parents’ emotional experience while compassionately teaching them a better way to build connections and nurture their child’s success."
"Kristen is a ray of sunshine. Whether you are a participant in one of her Conscious Discipline presentations or receiving one on one coaching, her energy is contagious. She shares her personal journey with neurodivergence that is inspiring to all- teachers, parents, and therapists. Kristen is relatable and provides practical ideas that are simple to implement. When adults feel overwhelmed and hopeless- Kristen brings the restorative energy that is needed for hope and change. "
"This presentation may have been the best one I’ve seen all day. I walked away with so many simple ideas that I can implement immediately. The presentation was personal, resonated with me, well paced, informative, and memorable."
"Kristen has been an invaluable and knowledgeable sounding board on my neurodiverse parenting journey. She always brings insightful perspective to a situation and provides practical strategies to consider and implement. Her own parenting experiences coupled with her training and continual gathering of helpful resources (locally and nationally) are exactly the tools to call upon when I come across challenges in the school or home environment. I'm grateful to her and am so glad she is making herself available to more families."
