What Healing Parents are saying…
Healing Parents Course Announcement: Enrollment open through September 30th!
“ Even as a social worker who works with children and families, I had to let go of so many socially-accepted “norms” of parenting that were undermining my relationship with my children. Gabriela’s approach is exactly what its name suggests: healing.
- Lyndsay, Social Worker & Mother of 2
“I know, and I can finally say that I can do this! Some days will be better and easier than others, but my children are fortunate to have a parent who is committed to doing the personal work, and changing the traditional parent/child role in order to raise a family that is more connected, and supports one another unconditionally.”
— Former Course Participant & Parent
“I have learned practical tools for improving my relationship with my children and have been given a safe environment to process motherhood. I am so grateful I found Gabriela and her work. She has been a guide through one of the most important journeys of my life.”
— Shana, Graduate Student & Mother of 2
“I have a lot more patience with myself. I see that healing and conscious parenting is a journey and a process, sometimes we make mistakes but we’re committed to the journey. More compassion for myself and my child was a major takeaway from The Healing Parents Course and I am so grateful!”
— Former Course Participant & Parent
“As an abuelita, I feel the skills I am learning are helping me reparent myself and cultivate true generational healing for my family. I didn’t realize I could go deeper in my healing until I met Gabriela. I have a counseling degree. I also experienced a childhood filled with trauma and chaos. I was really good at emoting. This soft spoken human taught me to truly feel. Her quiet questions and focused attention created bursts of insight. Awareness, worth, and boundaries organically emerged as she made space for all my parts to be honored and heard within a framework of individual toward collective liberation.”
- Elizabeth, Cultural Organizer, Therapist, & Abuela
“I am a much less perfect parent these days, but I feel I am giving my daughter a great gift in my imperfection, which is the permission to be imperfect herself.”
— Former Course Participant & Parent
“This course was fantastic! It was everything I had hoped it would be, plus more. I had no idea that so much self reflection and growth could come from a three months weekly parenting class, but the entire experience was extremely valuable and positively transformative.”
— Rafa, Psychologist & Father of 2
“For me, this class happened at just the right time, aligning with a lot of reflection and healing that I’ve done this past year with my personal therapist. There were times that I came away with so much more compassion for myself and my family than I thought possible, and with every call I found myself more energized and motivated to practice the different tools and techniques for connection. I also found myself connecting more with my spouse, and seeing our relationship as complimentary parts to our children’s lives and upbringing, as opposed to clashing and inconsistent parenting styles. I’m challenging myself all the time to come into a situation with more curiosity and respect than ever before, and hope to continue to do so in the future.”
— Former Course Participant & Parent
“I feel a much greater sense of well-being since working with Gabriela. Before taking her course I felt plagued by uncertainty about most parenting decisions. I felt very blocked from my intuition. Through continued coaching and the membership community, I’ve gotten the connection and care I need so that I can extend the same to my children and to all my relationships.”
— Jessica, Mother of 2
“Gabriela’s style of teaching was a wonderful balance of seriousness, focus, and organization, with humor and lightheartedness. She is very welcoming to each unique experience, and made it clear that we could participate in the weekly classes in whatever way or form worked best for each of us. I really appreciated her kind and welcoming way of answering all questions and concerns.”
— Former Course Participant
“The Healing Parents Course isn’t just a gentle parenting course. It is a continual fountain of expert advice and nurturing support. If you do nothing else for yourself or your parenting, do this. Sign up for the course.”
— Elisse, Musician, Photographer, & Mother of 3
“I appreciate Gabriela’s honesty and how she creates a judgment-free space throughout the course. I love how thoroughly researched all the topics are and I really appreciate how accessible she makes all the research”
— Former Course Participant
“I love the way Gabriela presents all the science and then sprinkles in her own experiences in a vulnerable way. Such a breath of fresh air to learn all the facts without it being so serious. She’s also not afraid to say the difficult things people need to hear, and she says them with genuine compassion.”
— Sara, Business Owner & Mother of 2
“I came away with so much more compassion for myself and my family than I thought possible, and with every call I found myself more energized and motivated to practice the different tools for connection.”
— Former Course Participant & Mother
“I have been able to put into practice what I learned in The Healing Parents course every single day, in every relationship in my life - the most important one being my relationship to myself.”
— G. White, Philanthropist & Mother of 2
