Community and support for parents of
"emotionally intense" kids
" We don't fail in our parenting
We are failing in our expectations of parenthood
It 's very different! "
You know your kid is intense...and you tried everything that you "should be doing" but it's just not working and nobody else sees it!
It feels so lonely!
What if instead you could...
To be able to enjoy your life and kids, not always being afraid of the next outburst
This is what I want to help you accomplish, by helping you to see through everything you already know, share experiences, choose what works for you and put aside what doesn't, without guilt, by creating a safe and judgment-free space where you can really feel accepted and understood, even if you never experienced that before, and have the support to move forward in a confident way.
Hi, I'm Anouk Brière-Godbout!
I mentor and support parents of "emotionally intense kids" for whom nothing in the “general parenting advice” seems to work.
Together, we'll uncover what’s going on with your child and find solutions and ideas that work for YOU and YOUR kid(s) so things go more smoothly, you can quit feeling like you are failing at parenting in constant fear of the next outburst and feel confident in trying different things that fit your kids' needs better.
I have a Master's degree in Social Work,
I've been supporting parents for more then 15 years and I've been a mom for just as long.
As a mentor, I now have the chance to work with you, parents of emotionally intense kids, those who are great, sweet, intelligent, curious kids (most of the times) but who also feel everything deeply and react explosively.
I am sure you already know everything there is to know about parenting and child rearing and want the best for your children... and for you! Things are just not working and nobody really gets you (or even belives you!)
So I hope to support you to recognize your strengths and use them, clean up all the information and social pressure and refocus on yourselves and your children to make your family decisions, because we are the only real experct of our children!

"I had a one hour private session with Anouk and it was fantastic!
Anouk has a great mixture of being approachable, down-to-earth and professional. She is very intuitive and knowledgeable and had great practical tips for me to tackle the challenges I am experiencing with my 2 children.
I would highly recommend a session with Anouk. She had insight which I had not ever even contemplated myself.
Thanks so much Anouk!"
