No parent starts off knowing what to do...
And without Conscious Effort, Our Parenting Methods Can Create Conflict Instead of Connection. The authoritarian and punitive measures most of us have been taught to parent, creates conflict, frustration, endless power struggles and leaves us with broken and distant relationships with our children.
When we parent our children without working through our own history, we are destined to repeat painful patterns we ourselves experienced as children, no matter how badly we want it to be different.
It’s Never Too Late to Break Free of Generational Patterns
No matter what your relationship with your child(ren) looks like right now, there is hope. Depending on where things are, it can be hard to believe there is truly another way. But I promise you there is.
No one starts off as parents knowing what to do. We create plans, try to be the people we want to be and watch as our idealistic imaginings get run over by the reality of daily life and the immense pressures of caring for children.
Hello! I'm Joy Johnson
I became a parenting coach because I was once so fearful of repeating unhealthy patterns with my own children, that I did not want to become a parent.
Once I understood how possible it was to build a relationship with children based on mutual trust, understanding and care, I became deeply passionate about supporting other parents in this life-changing work.
I believe all children have rights and deserve to be heard, guided and loved by the best version each of us have to offer them, as parents.
I know that you want to be a loving, peaceful parent that has a meaningful connected relationship with your children. In order to do that you need to find a way to reimagine and reestablish a different kind of relationship with your kids.
The traditional ‘POWER-OVER’ model of parenting isn’t working
Which makes you feel like you’re going to spend the rest of your life struggling with your children and continue to feel like you’re just not doing a good job as a parent.
I believe that the real issue is that we’re not taught how to be the kind of parents most of us long to be and only focus on what we don’t want to repeat as parents. We end up slipping into the patterns that were ingrained in us in our own childhoods.
I understand how hard it is to ask for help as a parent. Which is why when you contact me, you will be met with understanding, a non-judgemental openness and a supportive, personalized, effective plan that I will personally guide you through every step of the way.
“Reuben and I were so happy to take this course with Joy and definitely encourage any other parents who are looking to learn or re-examine their own parenting styles. The sessions and workbook assignment sparked a lot of conversations around how we were raised and what we would like our parenting goals to be. Check her out if you can!”

How It Works:
When you book a call with me, we’ll sit down together and talk so I can get a sense of what’s going on for you and your family and where I can offer support.
I’ll explain my approach and the options we have for working together. You can ask any questions you have and see what type of support would be the best fit for your life and schedule.
If it feels right to you, we can book our first session and get started. If it’s not a good fit, I will do my best to offer alternative resources or suggestions for support, wherever possible. There’s no pressure of any kind, simply an opportunity to see if we are a good fit to work together.
Let's Talk!
