Your kid is gone,
and you just want them back.
My child was completely unrecognizable.
Up until that point, we had been cruising through life preeeetty close to normal. Sure, every day was hard, but I thought that's just how parenting had to be.
I thought everyone had to have their child sleep in a pitch black room, and that everyone had to cut up their sandwiches just so, and everyone had elaborate routines just to get out the door.
It was hard, but we were making it.
But then, it was like a switch flipped, and all I knew was that something was very, very wrong. My child started refusing to go to school. They started throwing things at their siblings and melting down with behaviors so extreme that none of us knew what to do. And even worse, they would only eat two foods and started struggling with toileting and sleeping through the night again. No one tells you that taking care of an elementary-schooler can be harder than a newborn.
"You just need better boundaries."
I tried that and mercy did it make everything 10x worse! Now my child was terrified of me and saying they didn't want to be alive. I tried googling everything. I read all the books, tried new therapists and parenting programs. But it didn't matter how gently I parented or how strictly I held boundaries--Nothing worked to bring my kid back or bring our family back to stability.
But when I learned my kid was in burnout,
that's when everything changed.
It wasn't that I was the world's worst parent.
I just didn't know how to support a child in burnout.
Understanding and supporting burnout is the key to stability for your whole family.
No more frantic googling: "Why is my daughter suddenly so aggressive with her siblings?" or "Why my 13-year-old they addicted to buying Fortnite skins?" or "Why does my kid flip the table when they lose at Uno?" or "Why does my teenager stay up all night long?"
Skip the awful part where you're stumbling alone through so many treacherous pitfalls. Learn from my many mistakes, and the wisdom I've gained from coaching hundreds of families along their own burnout-healing journey. You're not in this alone anymore, and you're not wandering in the dark.
You've got a burnout roadmap.
With this approach, you will get your kid back.
A PROVEN HEALING FRAMEWORK.
Childhood burnout typically moves through 3 distinct phases. Knowing which phase you're in and how to parent your child, teen, or young adult through the uniqueness of each phase is pivotal for moving from chaos to stability.
This is your burnout map, guiding you forward with key moves, don't-do's, and mastery tips to take the fear and mystery out of burnout.
SUPPORT FOR YOUR UNIQUE KID.
This customized healing path works for all families -- whether your kid experienced a traumatic event, had undiagnosed neurodivergence, has a medical condition like PANS/PANDAS, or you don't know why this happened at all.
This approach isn't just for some kids. It's for all kids who are so distressed that life isn't working anymore.
NO SHAME.
NO JUDGMENT.
NO PUNISHMENTS.
You're not a bad parent, and you definitely don't have a bad kid. You're living with behaviors that 99% of families don't understand. But you won't hear, "Oh, I would never let my kid get away with that" here. No judgy eye rolls. No shaming "Have you tried..." suggestions.
Just pure, honest trust in you, your child or teen, and your family, that you can get to stability and thriving again.
"a complete 180 turnout"
"My daughter was in an almost constant meltdown, with small glimpses of regulation. She was violent and abusive to her brother and to us – it was an incredibly rough time.
Fast forward to now, just a handful of months later of truly implementing Amanda’s Low Demand Parenting and violence is WAY down, sleep has become accessible and we have been able to start homeschooling. It has been a complete 180 turnaround.
Working with Amanda has been a transformative, life-giving experience.”

Discover the magic formula for healing burnout
(and how to make it work for you)
This 3 month course is a truly unique space for you to:
- Take the comprehensive burnout assessment to determine what phase your child, teen, or young adult is in.
- Untangle the myths about your kid's extreme behaviors that are keeping them (and you) stuck--and learn what to do instead.
- Learn the essential do's and don'ts in each phase of burnout so you can see immediate shifts.
- Create the 4 core safety plans that every family needs.
- Master medications and other body-based regulation strategies, without meltdowns and refusals.
- Step away from the loneliness and isolation of figuring out everything on your own because caregivers deserve support too.
A parenting course that is
50% practical shifts and 50% heart-transformation
This is for you if:
- You know that your kid is suffering, and you'd do anything to help them.
- You are ready to let go of time-outs and star charts and constant battle of wills.
- Nothing else has worked, but you also have a sense that you've been looking in the wrong places.
- You ultimately believe that you have a good kid who is often misunderstood, who is crying out for help in the best way they know how.
- You have enough wisdom and experience to know that true transformation takes time.
- You are comfortable in a space that is neurodiversity-affirming, vibrantly LGBTQ+ positive, and actively naming and dismantling the wounds of ableism, capitalism and white supremacy.
From surviving to thriving
This course gives you exactly what you need to change your present moment -- and nothing you don't.
At every step, you will build your self-trust and your ability to listen and trust your kid. Each piece is customized directly to your priorities, life-situation, and present needs.
You don't have to do exactly what I say, or follow any strict 4-part protocol.
Instead, you will create plans that work for your unique family, without needing to prove or explain yourself to anyone.
If it works for you, we love it.
Video Modules & Live Calls
By listening 10 minutes a day, (or binging an hour a week!), you will spend these 8 weeks rewiring your brain and restocking your tool kit through the powerful teaching in the video modules for this course.
In the FIVE 90-minute live teaching calls, you get direct support in a healing community. People tell me these 90-minute calls do more for their relationship with their child than a year of therapy.
We cover:
Meltdowns & shutdowns
What is actually happening in your kid's body and brain when they are raging or completely shut down (and why this knowledge changes everything).
Kids in burnout
The powerful moves and key mistakes most parents make in burnout -- so you can move through it as quickly as possible.
Aggression & safety
The four essential safety plans every family needs so they can get good at "the bad stuff."
Dropping demands
Where you can let go of the pressure to proactively reduce 50-90% of meltdowns before they start (and start to breathe again as a family).
Medication & body-based supports
How to shift your kid's capacity through directly supporting their body and nervous system -- without triggering more meltdowns, aggression, or avoidance.
“I am not exaggerating when I say that Amanda's course changed my family's life.
We were already implementing a low-demand lifestyle after reading her excellent book, but the chance to go deeper with Amanda herself has helped us truly understand and connect with the why of all the changes we are making.
And it has made SUCH a difference for all of us in terms of prioritizing trust and connection and focusing on healing our nervous systems.”
