About 99% of the sleep methods out there are a version of Ferber (they may use other terms, but if you have to leave the room, it's Ferber.) Believe it or not, this isn't the only way (it's just the bandwagon that researchers have decided to stay on.)

I am one of a qualified, certified group of Gentle Sleep Coaches who use a gradual approach (pioneered by Kim West, LCSW-C) that gradually scaffolds sleep skills without having to leave them alone to cry—which is especially important for these alert, intense kiddos who go from zero to sixty faster than you can say "pacifier."

A gradual sleep training approach allows you to stay with your child and gradually wean down what you do to help. Most importantly, you get to calm them down when they need help.
I mean, no one's learning anything when they're hysterical. 

​

ADVANTAGES:

• It's tolerable for both the child and the parent

• It's do-able. There's no "talking yourself into it."

• It really works even for bright, intense, persistent kiddos

• It's customizable to fit your unique family and goals

"No one's learning anything when they're  hysterical."

Booking a consult . . .

I am currently only offering one-hour consults ($175, see below) for children six months to six years old. This includes a virtual consult with me, a link to the call recording, and helpful handouts.

Sometimes, you just need someone to listen and point you in the right direction. Chances are, you can take it from there.
