The ND Parenting Lab Support Group

WHAT MEMBERS SAY ABOUT BEING IN THE SUPPORT GROUP:

“Stacey’s groups are a lifeline! I always learn, unload, share and benefit from the wisdom of the tribe. Each session lights our path - and makes my day! I am so grateful for this priceless resource. “ Jen

"These calls have been an invaluable experience and support.  I block the times on my calendar because it is that important.  I plan to be there because the support and understanding and non-judgmental safe space is key to me surviving and thriving in parenting and life.  I feel seen, heard and part of a community that understands what I am dealing with, and I can be there for others as well...Stacey creates the space for us to ask questions and listen to each other, to deal with situations and give us permission and safety to make decisions that go against the norms.  It is so hard to realize that we need to do something different to support our kids’ well being and thriving.  In this community we have the resources and people that are doing it in real time, and we know that we can try something, if it doesn’t work, we will try something else." Risheeta 

"I joined Stacey’s support group a couple of months ago and from the very first session I have felt safe, heard and supported. Stacey creates a wonderful space to share whatever situation you are dealing with and offers support in the most lovely, respectful way. Stacey understands exactly what we are going through, so do the other parents, and always gives useful and practical tips for parenting neurodiverse children." jodi

“The calls have taught me that it's OK to leave the checkboxes unchecked, to let your kid have messy hair, to let him/her have BO (I still try to get mine to shower at least every 3 days but it's exhausting), to not raise your voice because they're late to school or because they or I are too tired to even think about homework. The calls have taught me that truly advocating for your kid will often oppose what we've been programmed to believe is "well brought up”. Bailing out these murky waters is a tough and ongoing but cathartic  exercise that renews the parent-child bonds.” Mercy

 “Stacey is such a great listener, open-minded and made me feel comfortable to share without judgment. She showed a lot of empathy. She also wasn’t shy to use examples from her life -she truly understands.” Maude

“Even just listening in has helped me feel less alone on this journey. Stacey has created such a safe, supportive space where parents truly feel understood.Thank you 🙏🏻”Leontien

"The calls with Stacey are a highlight of my week! We bring our current challenges and wins and get all kinds of insights, tools and support from the group. It is so valuable to identify the gems in the flood of information and hear how real people put them into practice. Stacey is a master facilitator and offers loads of practical wisdom. I identify with aspects of every situation and always finish a little lighter and more connected. Very grateful for this precious resource and highly recommend!" Jenifer

“Parents are craving this type of community-  seeking advice and a place to feel fully seen and heard. Stacey has provided endless resources and her patience and nurturing manner have resulted in a cult-like following.  Her drive is genuinely to help others and ease the pursuit of all parents wanting to raise healthy and content children. Her natural and graceful way of communicating through sharing her own experiences parenting a neurodiverse child as well as her deep academic studies, make her a unique expert. If you are looking for a nurturing and supportive community and a breath of fresh air on how to parent a neurodiverse child or engage with today’s educational or social environments with a neurodiverse child, I cannot recommend enough either following Stacey’s substack or signing up to partake in her zoom calls. You and your family will all be better off as a result!” Kresta
