WisdomPath Parenting

Specialties

WisdomPath Parenting is a unique parenting program that responds to the needs of 21^st century parents who want to know how to guide, teach, and protect their children, but find themselves overwhelmed by parenting «techniques» over wisdom.

At WisdomPath Parenting, we believe that only when we have a «deep knowing» of what our childrens’ behaviors mean and don’t mean, can we then trust our instincts to guide, nurture, teach, and encourage. We can then develop a system of rules, limits, and consequences that fit within our own family values and cultural norms.

WisdomPath Parenting offers parenting workshops, individual intensives, and parent coaching to help you (1) deepen your understanding of your child or adolescent’s behaviors, (2) know your role in helping your child or adolescent to develop to his or her fullest potential, and (3) design your own system of WisdomPath discipline that reflects your family’s core values.

History

Established in 2012.

Kate Messina, PhD and Michaela Adams, BA, have developed WisdomPath Parenting to help new and seasoned parents gain confidence in their abilities to parent their children.

Dr. Messina and Michaela Adams, BA, have come together to combine their expertise in working with parents and children after realizing through their separate endeavors, that parents feel the most confidence in their own innate wisdom to parent only after they attain a greater understanding of their children’s behaviors and know «what is coming and why».
