Empowerment Parenting Workshops

Available in-person and virtually, Empowerment Parenting’s workshops are taught by professionals with a combined 25+ years of experience supporting parents of children with challenging behaviors.

Perfect for parents who are looking for strategies that work in today’s world, Empowerment Parenting helps unlock trauma-informed topics that help families laugh more together and yell less.

Why Trauma-Informed Parenting?

Trauma-informed care is no longer for a select few. We’ve been through a collective trauma and technological revolution—which means we can all benefit from learning how to be emotionally healthy and resilient. 

By healing the adult (that’s you!), we’re also able to help you model the behaviors you want to see in your kids and create more peace in your household. 

Part of that means spending more time with your kids—73% of kids want to spend more time with their families. Yet, figuring out how to best do that can be challenging.

Our workshops are a great opportunity for any caregiver, especially for those tired of:

  • Getting calls from the school
  • Fighting constant battles with your kids
  • Feeling guilty for wanting a break

I couldn’t ask for a better experience or coach to start me on a journey of rediscovering myself with relationships in so many areas.

“I couldn’t ask for a better experience or coach to start me on a journey of rediscovering myself with relationships in so many areas. Every session I learned something new that I was excited to apply to my life! Sarah never criticized me in a way to where I needed to feel defensive. The opposite actually. I felt respected and educated as if I was a human being who deserved to be loved and to love properly.”

The amount of knowledge gained from just a 3-hour class was phenomenal! 

Being a foster parent and now an adoptive parent, I have been through countless training sessions, but this one was so different than any I had been to before. It felt more like a one on one talk where we were having out and just socializing than a class.  Sarah relates to her students and has been there, and she gives examples  of her own struggles in addition to taking ideas from participants. This class would be so beneficial for any parent as well as anyone who works with children. The amount of knowledge gained from just a 3 hour class was phenomenal! Highly recommend!!!

Hands down one of the best resources we have had as a foster parent and as a parent. 

“Hands down one of the best resources we have had as a foster parent and as a parent. Sarah is knowledgeable and has experience working with challenging children and children of trauma. She has walked a journey with us that has been an uphill climb and does not waiver in her commitment to our success or the success of our children.  She is passionate and is willing to listen and is very creative in finding ways to meet you and your family where they are at. I have become a better person, employee, spouse and parent as a result of my time with Sarah. Her value to me and my family is beyond measure.”
