In addition to coaching individual families, I provide workshops for schools and organizations as community engagement events, family education nights, and fundraisers.
I cover the array of challenges families face at different phases of their child’s life—from elementary through high school.
Regardless of the topic, parents and students as young as 10 leave with:
You’re probably swamped and the thought of adding one more thing to your to do list might feel overwhelming.
For an in person workshop, all that’s required is a venue, a television monitor I can connect my laptop to, and that you send out a few emails I’ve written for you. I bring everything else, including my own PA system.
Online events are even easier. All you need to do is send those emails out.
“It was a total success! There was so much learning to be had. The opportunity to be a part of something truly important and bigger than ourselves is such a gift.”
The Rupture to Repair Workshop:
Practical Strategies for Preventing Family Conflicts
For parents with kids 5 – 18 and students 10+
Parents of kids in different age groups face different challenges.
In elementary school, it’s all about setting the foundation for having trusting relationships with the adults in their lives that will serve them far into the future.
In middle school and high school, it’s all about kids not wanting their parents to manage their lives any more. Instead, they want parents to be their (unpaid) consultants. And that transition can be rocky for everyone.
The Rupture to Repair Workshop is designed to meet parents of kids 5-18 and students as young as 10 in whatever unique conflict dynamic they find themselves in.
This workshop can be customized for parents with kids in elementary school, kids in middle school, or both.
“As an educator, I am looking forward to using the tools Lisa shares with my so-called ‘trouble-makers,’ many of whom are dealing with trauma. As a mother, I appreciate the emphasis on repair.”
“I’ve observed the impact that Lisa can have on strengthening a school’s culture, particularly useful in this time where creative solutions to community building are needed. School families connect with Lisa because they know she’s one of them.”
Screen Time Agreements That Stick
For parents with kids 5 – 18 and students 10+
In this workshop, I provide practical strategies for:
“The practical strategies Lisa shares in her workshop have been extremely helpful to me in navigating my relationship with my Godchildren. After a helpful and restorative session with my Godson, who is 14, he asked if he could have her number so he could get support from her again. (A 14 year old!!!)”
“Parents leave Lisa’s talks feeling empowered. Lisa offers practical ways for parents to bring out the best in their children and themselves. She’s gifted at using the power of storytelling to open the hearts and minds of her audience to possibilities they hadn’t considered.”
“Lisa has a fantastic ability to combine humor and meaningful insight that leads an audience on a journey of discovery through shared experiences.”
