I just wanted to let you know that your “Brain Science” course has made a beautiful difference in our daughter’s life. She developed an intense fear of the ocean this spring and summer as COVID changed our lives. That fear was very limiting as we live so close to the water. We spent much of the summer doing the same trail walk she was comfortable with in the woods, instead of enjoying local beaches and enjoying the beautiful sea wall near our home. Last weekend, before we headed out the door for that old familiar hike, she said she wanted to walk by the ocean instead. We have so missed doing this walk as a family, but she used to shake and sob if we tried to force it. This past weekend, she was so confident and proud of herself as she walked. You have given her the concept that her fears may not be the truth and she can choose to send them away.

I have relied on Sharon for exceptional parenting advice, particularly related to anxiety, for several years. She has guided me through the system, directed me to various practitioners, resources, books, etc., and offered me great comfort and perspective when I really needed it. I recently attended one of Sharon’s Connected Parenting series workshops on anxiety and I was so impressed by both the content and Sharon’s communication style. Without even a glance at any notes, Sharon walked us through the latest brain research about anxiety. She has such a clear and thorough understanding of the material that she is able to break it down and share it in a simple and practical way. Sharon also shared some of the ‘tools’ that she has used with her own children and students that she has worked with over the years. I have found these tools particularly useful. We are lucky to have Sharon as a valuable resource in our community.
