Learn how to
Adjust your parenting for the kid you've got.

I'm offering you a lifeline!

I'll guide you from feeling helpless and hopeless to watching your neurodivergent child shine. Let's extinguish the crises and build an authentic life of success and joy for your child (and your family).

Want to get clear on what will help YOU and YOUR KID right now?

Take my free quiz to cut through the overwhelm and get focused on the information and resources that will help you and your child where you are RIGHT NOW.

YES! TAKE ME TO THE QUIZ!

I'll help you create the family life you crave.

Yeah, it's possible!

Parenting a neurodivergent child isn’t about trying harder — it’s about understanding neuro-differences. Once you learn how your child’s brain processes the world, you can shift from frustration to connection, from confusion to clarity. With the right tools and mindset, you can create an environment where your child feels seen, supported, and capable of success.

What you'll learn about parenting here.

There are no rules.

Alright. You got me. Yes, there are, technically, some rules. But if you're not hurting your kid, then you're allowed to parent them differently than society, your family members, and nosy neighbors dictate. In fact, I encourage it!

you're allowed to write your own rules

Traditional parenting doesn’t work for neurodivergent kids. it's okay to reject societal pressures and write your own rules. 

It's not about control

Parenting isn’t about controlling your kid. The best parents follow their kid’s lead and take on a supporting role. 

Kids do NOT need more discipline

Biology and behavior are deeply interconnected. A child or teen's behavior is a signal of what they struggle with and how we can help and support them best. Reframing and decoding behavior is key.

You are enough

You've got this! You can shift from survival mode to success mode and create change for your family. You can be the parent you want to be and the parent your child needs you to be. I'm living proof.

A roadmap to a thriving kid and family

SIGNAL Parenting™

There was a time when I thought I had to fix everything.

The meltdowns. The defiance. The constant pushback.

I thought if I just had the right script or consequence, the right chart or strategy, I could finally get through to my child.

But nothing worked — not in the way I truly needed it to.

Because what I didn’t know yet was this:
Behavior isn’t the problem. It’s the signal.

It’s the signal that something inside isn’t feeling safe. That the nervous system is overwhelmed. That a child is doing the best they can — not to be difficult, but to survive something that feels too big.

That shift changed everything for me.

It’s what led me deep into the science of the autonomic nervous system, into co-regulation, into connection as the real path to growth — and into the work I now do every day with families like yours.

I created SIGNAL Parenting™ as a framework to help you make that same shift.
Not by doing more.
But by seeing more clearly.

When you learn to recognize the signal behind the behavior — and respond with regulation, connection, and emotional safety — you rewrite the story, for your child and for yourself.

This is parenting with heart.
Parenting with science.
Parenting with the kind of clarity that helps you breathe again.

Welcome to SIGNAL Parenting.
You don’t have to fix your child to create peace.
You just need to follow the signal.

S

Spot the State

Before anything else, ask: What nervous system state is my child in?

I

Interpret the Behavior

Once you know the state, ask: What is this behavior trying to tell me?

G

Ground Yourself

Before you respond to your child, check in with yourself. Pause. Breathe. Regulate.

N

Notice Needs & Emotions

What does your child need in this moment? What emotions might be driving the behavior?

A

Adjust Expectations

Now that you understand what’s going on, ask: What needs to shift?

L

Lead with Connection

When you lead with connection, safety, and co-regulation, you create the conditions for your child to come back online.

This is the process I would have jumped fully into the very day my neurodivergent kid was diagnosed if I had known then what I know now. I was on my own back then… but you're not alone now. I'm here to save you years of self-doubt and overwhelm and get you on the most effective path right away.

"We've had a complete transformation!"

I felt like I was drowning as a mother to my 8-year-old daughter with ADHD. Our entire household was miserable. I took Penny’s course and read some of her books and put some new knowledge and skills into practice. My household has had a complete transformation. No more yelling and screaming. No more crazy punishments that didn’t work. My daughter and I have an excellent relationship now.

Heidi
"We went from many meltdowns a day to an occasional meltdown every few months."

The Survival to Success Accelerator has really helped me understand what is going on for my daughter. I no longer see my daughter as an aggressor, but a person that needs support. The course has helped us to go from several meltdowns every day to the occasional meltdown every few months, but even those are not as intense. I feel so much more in tune with my daughter's needs.

Robin
"We're growing snowball of small successes built on small successes."

My child's challenges related to ADHD and ASD have the power to completely derail our family's daily dynamics, but as I've learned more about these challenges in the Survival to Success Accelerator and have taken the time to get really curious about what my child needs to feel safe and regulated, two pretty amazing things happened: I stopped putting my child in situations he "should" be able to navigate (in spite of evidence that he can't, yet), and safety and trust have grown from fewer disastrous "'should' but can't" situations. It's given my son the space to regulate, learn, and experience a growing snowball of small successes built on small successes.

Charlie
"Our home is a much nicer place to be for us all."

I just wanted to say a big thank you for your Survival to Success Accelerator programme. We still have some difficult days, but our home is a much nicer place to be for us all. I really enjoyed the course — I keep rewatching bits and building on our progress. It helped me understand my lovely daughters and be a calmer,more connected parent. We are so much in a better space so a huge thank you from our whole family!

M
"Wow! 🤩 Instant results and lowered intensity."

Thanks so much for this wonderful Program. It's very insightful, especially validating my kid's feelings and asking how I can help them.

Sarah
"You've changed our lives!"

When my son was diagnosed with ADHD, I felt confused, lost, angry, and sad. Then the guilt began and the questions were merciless. I would still be lost and confused without the extensive knowledge and supportI’ve received from your course. I kid you not, my husband and I would be lost without you.

The Hierarchy of Needs & Availability to Learn

  • with Penny Williams
  • 1 Hour
  • Behavior, school, education, accommodations, nervous system

Not every child is physiologically available to learn at all times. Often, neurodivergent kids and teens have many factors that can cause them to be dysregulated and cause their thinking brains to go offline. In this masterclass, Penny applies Maslow's Hierarchy of Human Needs as a checklist to decode what is impeding a student from learning or meeting expectations when it comes to school and schoolwork. In the end, you'll have a framework to troubleshoot a student's roadblocks to school success and eliminate them.

  • 1 Hour
  • Developmental age, behavior, independence, problem-solving, stengths-based approach

Learn how to effectively support neurodivergent kids and teens by meeting them where they are and providing what they need in the moment. You'll shift from a behavior-based lens to a brain-based lens to better understand and address behavior.  You'll learn to identify a child's developmental age, profile, strengths, and challenges to create a safe and supportive environment, as well as how to foster independence, problem-solving skills, and confidence. All of this helps you determine where they are and how to meet them there to provide the best opportunities for success.

  • with Penny Williams & Sarah Wayland, Ph.D.
  • 1 Hour
  • Regulation, dysregulation, co-regulation, challenging behavior, play, connection

It's important to be aware of our own reactions and responses, as they greatly impact our child's behavior. In this webinar, we explore how you're either escalating or de-escalating your child's/student's behavior.

Learn practical co-regulation techniques — from staying calm and using rhythm, to engaging in physical co-regulation, how to adjust your responses based on the child's needs, the art of being a good listener, and strategies to fuel your child's energy and resources through unconditional love, play, celebrating successes, and fostering connections.

How to Stay Calm When Your Child or Student Isn't

  • with Penny Williams
  • 1 Hour
  • Reactivity, regulation, dsyregulation, calm, co-regulation, nervous system

Every human is biologically wired to respond in kind to those around us. That's why reactivity is your instinct and why it's so hard to stay calm when your kid is acting out, freaking out, or zoning out. Yet, we know staying calm always creates better outcomes. Penny shares every one of the strategies she's used successfully to stay calm when her child isn't. In the end, you'll have the insights, strategies, and grounding you need to remain calm more often than not. And, guess what? It feels better for you too.
