You’re not in this alone. Join our free monthly Zoom support calls and meet other dads who know the struggle. No pressure, no recording—just real talk, maybe bad dad jokes, and a few helpful ideas.
Ready to do some dad homework? I curated 5 exercises to help you see your role as a dad in a whole new light. No grading, no gold stars. Eye-opening stuff you can work through at your own pace (hint: it’s not all about your kid).
You’re here because you care deeply about being the best parent you can be. You’ve been trying everything—reading books, listening to advice, applying techniques—but you are still struggling. The harder you try, the more frustrated and isolated you feel.
Parenting a neurodivergent child is a journey unlike any other. It’s filled with love but also with challenges that can leave you feeling defeated. The chaos at home, shrinking social circle, and the fear for your child’s future—it’s overwhelming. You’re not alone, and you don’t have to do this alone.
Feeling stuck?
Feeling confused?
Feeling scared?
There is help.
WTF?
Not your average parenting
In my parenting life, we were trying to keep up with behavioral, vision, cancer, and education challenges. We were trying to do the “right” thing, but it wasn’t always the “effective” thing. It was a lot. And very confusing...
Cycles of frustration, guilt, and anger were very real. What helped was having solid, non-judgmental support. With that, I was able to start making progress, feel better about being a dad, and help others.

What help can look like
There aren’t any quick fixes here. What I can share is a kind ear that knows what it’s like to be a dad struggling. I'm a parent coach training with the Jai Institute of Transformational Parenting. This is a curriculum-based approach to understanding brain science, attachment theory, and communication to improve your connection with yourself and your family. In 12 weeks we explore how to cut to the chase and build a better relationship with yourself and your family.
Science-based strategies, real-life examples, helpful tools, and some humor to help you feel better about being a dad. Plus, meet other real dads. This is the framework that helped me cut to the chase and feel better about being a dad.
Let's talk about what's going on. Schedule 30 minutes (free) here. I'm currently scheduling opening for 1:1 coaching clients starting August 2025.

Once a week(ish), get a dose of insights on being a parent, dad, and coach to your neurodivergent kid.
Before becoming a parent coach, I spent years building a communications agency—helping leaders and teams at Nike, Walmart, Intel, Sony, Deloitte, and others connect with millions of employees and customers. My work wasn’t about flashy pitches or quick fixes—it was about understanding people, meeting them where they were, and helping them feel seen, valued, and inspired.
When my own family faced a string of challenges—first ADHD, then ASD—I already knew parenting wasn’t a straight line. Then came the pandemic and the mess of homeschooling, followed by a pediatric cancer diagnosis. Through it all, I saw how little support there was for dads like me.
So, I’m not here to tell you how to be a perfect dad. I’m here because I’ve been there. And I believe there’s another way—one that’s grounded in what works for you, your kid, and your family.
