Welcome!

Are you parenting a child who has experienced early stress, has a vulnerable nervous system or displays puzzling behaviors?

Are you working so hard to be the safe space for your kids and realizing you, yourself, don’t have a soft place to land?

I am glad you are here.


I am Jeri Lea. I am a psychotherapist and parent coach and my passion is supporting YOU, parents with young children, and your relationships with one another! I am also a parent and am very much on this journey of growth and discovery with you.

Parents on couch

I offer parent coaching and education, therapy, nervous system support, and support for professionals in the infant and early childhood fields.

My deepest desire is to support adults in creating healthy relationships with themselves and their children so that they can thrive and families can flourish.

There is so much we can do to support wellbeing and healing NOW!


If you are looking for guidance and accompaniment on your journey:

  • to understand and address your child's behavior challenges to bring more ease and joy to your days and theirs,

  • to build or repair a secure connection with your child or,

  • to process your own past or present experiences of grief, overwhelm, or stress to move toward emotional wellbeing,

I would love to talk to you further to see if we are a good match.

I have known Jeri Lea for over 10 years as a collaborative mentor for the well-being of young children. I am a parent and an early childhood educator. Jeri Lea has acted as a consultant in my classroom to help me see a child’s situation through his/her eyes. She is concerned about providing tools and strategies that focus on the development of the whole child. Her suggestions are research-based, practical, and helps the child empower themselves to handle challenging situations. I value her expertise!

Jeri Lea’s calm and compassionate nature eases the stress that we all face at times with children. She makes the impossible become possible. Jeri Lea is dedicated to providing children, parents, and teachers with the best resources available to navigate what a child needs during a particular time in his/her life.

I would highly recommend Jeri Lea to families who may be feeling overwhelmed by a child’s unexplainable behavior due to a variety of reasons. Jeri Lea deeply cares and is dedicated to helping families and children.
