It’s been months of therapy, but months later, everything still feels like a power struggle.
You’re taking away the very things your child needs as “consequences,” just to make it through the day.
You’re doing everything you can. But you’re second-guessing every decision.
Parenting feels like one long punishment, for both of you, and you’re starting to wonder if you are the problem.
You hear other moms raving about their kids and wonder, why can’t that be me?
You find yourself second-guessing every consequence, every reaction, every decision.

This isn’t a course. It’s not a script. It’s hands-on, personalized support – designed to help you lead your family with more calm, confidence, and clarity.
There’s something powerful about being in a room – virtual or not – with parents who are walking a similar path. You don’t have to explain the chaos. You don’t have to pretend it’s fine. You’re just understood.
Kavana Group Coaching connects you with a small group of parents facing similar challenges – whether that’s a specific age and stage or a shared struggle like anxiety, sibling conflict, or school resistance. Together, we move from survival mode to feeling more confident and in control.
You’ll grow, feel seen, and learn practical strategies together.
Bring me in to speak at your school, organization, or community event and give parents more than inspiration – give them real, usable tools they can bring home that night.
I don’t teach just one method and expect it to fix everything.
Instead, I help you find the approach that truly fits your child, your home, and your unique challenges.
You won’t leave with generic advice. You’ll walk away with clear, practical tools tailored to your real-life situations-so you can finally take the guesswork out of parenting.
With 23 years as a pediatric occupational therapist and over 1,000 families supported, I know what really works. Now, I’m here to help you make it work for your family and really bring it home-to your home, not the one on the cover of a book.
For more than two decades, I worked as a pediatric occupational therapist—and I kept seeing the same pattern: kids came to therapy regularly, but progress was slow. Sometimes it took 6 to 12 months before families noticed real change.
Why? Because kids don’t live in a bubble. They might do great work in therapy, but if that progress isn’t supported at home, it doesn’t fully stick. And often, it’s not just about “fixing” the child—it’s about learning how to parent that child.
I’m not here to downplay therapy—it absolutely has its place. But for parents who’ve been trying everything and still don’t see the change they want, there’s another way.
Real change happens when you, the parent, learn the tools to build the home your child needs not just to live—but to truly flourish.
That’s why for the past two years, I’ve been working directly with parents like you—helping handle real-life challenges, rebuild connections, and make your house into home.

My wife and I want to express our deepest gratitude to Nikki for her patience and understanding, and for guiding us on a path to help our children be the happy children they deserve to be. She provided new insight into parenting techniques and strategies, and even more importantly referred us to professionals and educational resources to address our needs. We live in Michigan and could not be happier with our experience. We highly recommend Nikki and are confident you will too!

Nechama is a gem! It is evident from the 1st moment you speak to her, how knowledgeable and passionate she is about raising children with positivity. Both her own and anyone she encounters. Offering advice in a way that is easy to hear, and easy to implement.
I wholeheartedly recommend her services. She has made a remarkable difference in my life, and I’m incredibly grateful for her support and expertise through the years. I am lucky enough to call her a friend as well!

Nechama was an invaluable resource to us when my son was having trouble hitting and biting. She listened well and her advice was spot on. She checked in frequently and made herself available over text and calls. I want to recommend her to any of my friends, having trouble with their kids. She is a wellspring of information, knowledge, and compassion.nn

We talk through what’s happening and what you’ve already tried. If I’m not the right fit, I’ll tell you – and help guide you toward appropriate next steps.
We identify what’s driving the challenges, gather meaningful baseline information, and define achievable goals within a realistic timeframe.
Through ongoing sessions and support, you learn tools, apply them in real life, and adapt them as your child — and your family — grow and change.
You won’t “graduate” because parenting gets easy — you’ll leave with clarity, tools, and the confidence to meet whatever comes next (because it always does).
We offer flexible payment plans to make this accessible. And if you’re wondering whether now is the right time, ask yourself: where will your home be in six months if nothing changes? This work is an investment in changing patterns — not just getting through another hard phase. Sometimes the harder question isn’t the cost of starting — but the cost of staying the same.
Yes! You won’t be doing this alone. I’ll walk with you every step of the way—guiding, adjusting, and making sure the tools fit your real life. If something isn’t working, we pivot. This program is built to work for you.
In just 3 months, you’ll see a real shift in your home. The work is focused, supportive, and designed to create lasting change—not drag on for years.
You need guidance that turns insight into action.
