Being a healthy parent doesn't have to be so stressful.​

I am so grateful for this course. The program distills all the most effective and crucial components from the most successful evidence based parenting programs and helps me focus, prioritize and tune out all the noise from other sources offering less helpful advice and commentary.

I found their simple graphics and phrases (like the warmth/boundaries seesaw and the attention—behavior chart) were on instant recall for me when I felt my parenting temp rising. I was able to maintain my patience and work through challenging behaviors.

I am slowly working my way through the course and it is AMAZING! Seriously the best explanation of many of these complex, evidence-based practices that I have heard. So many parenting programs are so out of date or not easy for parents to digest The programs available for parents are often not backed by science or even experienced clinicians! This is SUCH an important resource to parents.

This parenting course is incredible! I have had such a mindset switch from trendy but inaccurate parenting messages to research-based parenting that actually is producing real results in our house!! Not to mention being able to share the parenting role with my husband, even though I am a full-time stay-at-home parent and he is working. We are aligned in our goals and I am feeling so supported.

Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart!!

What sets this program apart from others is that it provides really good, concrete tools with real-life examples in the videos.

The Grown Ups Matter section of this course was unlike anything we’ve experienced in other programs. We've done other evidence-based interventions, and this course was aligned with evidence-based tools, helpful in sharpening our skills and adding more detailed tools to our toolbox. This was the first time that the concept of being a therapeutic parent along with the experience of parenting a child with chronic mental health challenges was really brought forth.

Very impactful. Thank you!

The Essentials Course is absolutely amazing. Clear. Helpful. Evidence-based. No fear mongering.

This course has given me so many tools to use as a parent! I feel so much more confident handling pushback from my 4-year old with all the different approaches shared. The course provides practical tips that we were able to implement right away!

The Essentials course was so impactful. Creating visual routines for morning and bedtime has been a big hit in our house. My 4 year old son loves being "in charge" of making sure we go through each step in the routine (he likes to run to the chart and shout out what step we're on). He gets so excited when he gets through the "have to's" on the chart and to the last "want to" step.

I love this course so far! As an early childhood educator myself, the research base is very important to me. While I am familiar with a lot of the research, it has been helpful to me to hear it presented in a new way, learn some new strategies, and most importantly for my partner to learn from someone else that suggestions I have made in the past and ways I have handled things are truly research-based and not just coming from me.

It’s so helpful for us to get aligned.

I cannot express how grateful my husband and I are for your program. I broke down crying in your background video on Module 4 because I had become the parent you described, the positive parent "volcano". I grew up in an emotionally traumatic household and was so sensitive to causing harm to my daughter. Positive parenting appealed to me, but all of the resources I had found me hesitant, anxious and unsure how to apply consequences once my daughter started appropriately testing boundaries.

Over the past few weeks I have yelled more than I like to admit simply out of frustration of not knowing what to do. I stumbled upon your program and it is bringing so much relief to my heart and changes to my family.

I don't want to raise an A-hole, for lack of a better term. I have no problem handling the feelings and using consequences "withdrawals" as long as I know it is consistent with our values and is overall benefitting our daughter. Before even getting to the consequences part of this program, the emotional deposits and other strategies, even just slightly changing our wording from "when this, we will this" has made a profound difference in such a short time.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart from a very grateful mama. I wish I had a larger platform to promote how great this program is.

I love all the practical tips. This course provided tangible tips that I could start implementing right away with my 4 year old.

What sets the HFT Essentials program apart is that they provide evidence-based support for methods shared briefly. Not one-size-fits-all or blanket statements. Professional, engaging and judgement free.
