“I did a Family Strategy Session with Lisa. She asked ‘What are the possibilities and best outcomes for everyone?’ Possibilities? I thought ‘Now there is a new way to approach this.’ Her generous listening and ability to hear the real issue I described changed a situation with my daughter. I considered my part in what happened, why my daughter did what she did, and how we could move forward. Lisa helped me be more of the mother I want to be.”

“Just one short session with Lisa gave me a whole new perspective on an ongoing conflict within our household. Lisa helped me to see that this was a beautiful opportunity for growth and self-reflection as well as shifting my beliefs around the conflict. She held me nonjudgementally and passionately as we dived deep”
Family Strategy Session: Frequently Asked Questions
- What happens in a Family Strategy Session?
In this free 30-minute Zoom conversation, you’ll bring one conflict or power struggle that’s been hard to shift. Together, we’ll look at what’s happening beneath the surface, clarify what you want instead, and outline a simple next step to move toward connection and cooperation. - Why is it free?
This session is a genuine gift — no sales pitch, no strings. It’s a chance for you to experience a fresh approach to preventing and repairing conflict, and for us to see if my support might be a good fit for your family down the line. - Do I need to prepare anything?
Just come with one situation you’d like to handle differently — big or small. I’ll guide you through the rest. If it helps, think about one recent moment when you thought, “I wish this wasn’t so hard.” That’s a helpful starting point. - Will you judge me or my family?
Not at all. Every family struggles with conflict. This is a confidential, compassionate space where you can be honest and curious — not perfect. - What if I’ve already tried everything?
That’s exactly when this session can help. We’ll look at the invisible dynamics keeping things stuck and find one small, doable shift that can change the tone at home. - What if I’m not ready to make big changes?
That’s completely fine. The goal in 30 minutes isn’t to overhaul your family — it’s to explore what’s possible when you stop making decisions for each other and start making them with each other. Even a single insight can lighten things. - What happens after the session?
You’ll leave with clarity and one concrete next step. If you’d like continued support, I’ll share options — but there’s no pressure or obligation.
About Your Coach
Hi. I’m Lisa.
I’ve spent the last two decades learning, practicing, and teaching hundreds of parents how to prevent family conflicts. I started doing this work because I decided that I wouldn’t have kids until I had tools to do things differently than my (well-intentioned and loving) parents did. I have two kids.
Parents usually feel judged by their kids, their partners, their in-laws, other parents, and (the harshest critics of all) themselves. I see what every family member does through a judgment-free lens, which results in robust, compassionate conflict transformation.
I majored in Chinese in college, produced a podcast at a food truck park, and perform monologues like Date Night at Pet Emergency and the Mommy Meltdown Show. I also love square dancing and tandem pedal kayaks.
You’ve probably noticed that I don’t have any letters after my name. That’s because the skills you need to prevent conflicts and repair ruptures don’t require a degree in mental health. They’re accessible to everyone. My clients and I are living proof of that.
