Testimonials
~ "We have been on the journey of healing our daughter’s trauma (and ours) for many years. We have worked with dozens of experts including therapists, psychiatrists, social workers and therapeutic residential care workers. Some have helped and others not so much. We have used diet, meditation, connected parenting methods, equine, art, wilderness therapy and more. When I met JoAnna, I revealed that our family situation and history was extremely difficult and that I was skeptical she could offer me something new and useful, something that we had not already tried. JoAnna truly understands our experience as an adopted family. I can safely reveal how incredibly challenging and exhausting it is to parent our daughter and she meets me with compassion and without judgement and offers practical tools that I can use immediately. Working with her has been wonderful and has brought me hope at a time when I have felt very discouraged. She keeps things simple and focuses on ways to help change the behaviors so I can have more connection with my daughter. I am so grateful for JoAnna!" ~ LK
~ "In 4 weeks, JoAnna has completely transformed our home life. I knew about connected parenting but somehow failed to use it consistently. It was so helpful to have specific strategies to use. I will continue to check in with JoAnna every few months to keep us on track. Our home is so much more peaceful since working with JoAnna." ~ SK
~" As a single parent, I felt alone in parenting my son. He was acting out and unhappy and I couldn't figure out how to help him. JoAnna helped me to see that his behaviors were communication. With the tools she gave me, I felt more confident and compassionate as a parent. I would recommend her services to anyone struggling with challenging children." ~MN

~"JoAnna helped us reestablish communication with our 16-year-old daughter. Her approach is loving, down to earth and practical. There were common sense exercises that helped us unveil some of our stringent thinking when it comes to teens and allowed us to see and hear our daughter differently. We are grateful for her generosity and expertise and would highly recommend JoAnna." ~CC
