Hi, I'm Kirstin. I am a clinical psychologist and have created resources for parents of teenagers to build more Calm and Connection in their households.

I have 25 years experience working with teens and their families on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. Many parents are not supported at all when their teenagers are struggling. I have witnessed many great parents unknowingly make mistakes that have made their difficulties with their children worse... all because no one gave them the support and guidance they needed.

It is for this reason I developed the Calm Connection Program and other online resources including this new specialised School Reluctance training for parents of teens to reduce your stress and improve Monday morning ease for you and your teen.

In a past life I was also a university based researcher and have conducted studies on teen bullying and aggression, lying, delinquent behaviour, and resilience. As a researcher it is important to me that parents are supported with strategies that are based on science and psychological research.
