““Betsy was a valuable resource for our family during a major life transition. I first reached out because I was struggling to parent a child whose personality is very different from mine. Through our work together, I gained insight on how to better support my daughter and set a positive tone in our household. Betsy was always available when questions or challenges came up, and I am grateful for the guidance she provided during such an important time.””

“Betsy is a great listener and develops an individual plan for each child, working with the parents and siblings to create a great learning environment for all. She helped our daughter through a difficult school transition. Her flexible schedule allows your child to not be stuck in an office; she is more than willing to go on “out of office” adventures to facilitate discussion and growth.”

“I found Betsy at a time in my family’s life when we were feeling burnt out and hopeless. Upon first meeting, I immediately knew she was the right fit for my son and for our family. She helped our son immensely with his confidence and self regulation. She completely changed the way I looked at my son’s behaviors and dealt with our struggles. I’m not sure where we’d be now if we hadn’t found her. Betsy has become such a support and friend during our journey. ”

“You were just what we all needed. We always felt like our daughter had so much potential that she wasn’t able to unlock. You taught her to be true to herself and we learned so much that has helped us as parents support her and guide her to unlocking her potential and believing in herself again. We have all grown from working with you and we are so grateful we found you.”
— Ethan and Erin, Manitowoc, WI
“Sometimes a kid needs a new friend to listen to their story and offer a fresh voice to help them find a new path. Our 17 year old needed just that, and Betsy was an incredible resource. They formed strong bonds, and she was just what we needed to help us. I know she made a difference in my son’s life, and he would love to maintain that relationship. We couldn’t have made it through last year without her! ”
— M.O. DePere, WI

“I always say working with you is life changing. I leave with new perspectives and ways to be the best version of myself. I would encourage everyone to participate in this or to work with you in any way! This was just FANTASTIC!”
— USDD teacher, Staff Summer Renewal
“I very much appreciated time to connect with other teachers in a relaxed, safe space. Learning about self care and being encouraged to do it is invaluable. Healthier teachers will allow us to ‘be the light’ for our students! Cannot thank you enough for what you do, Betsy!”
— USDD Teacher, Teacher Reset Workshop
“I appreciate the amount of information as it was just enough to be able to apply the ideas throughout the week for myself and in the classroom. These weeks were so worth every minute and I got more from the group than I imagined. I have always known how important it is to make myself a priority but seeing the impact it has made on the kiddos has been so powerful. Thank you for the impact you are making.”
