Welcome to Hineni Parenting!

At Hineni Parenting, we believe that showing up with compassion, curiosity, and courage is the most sacred part of raising a child.

Rooted in the timeless Jewish value of Hineni ,"Here I am", our community supports parents in cultivating presence and emotional attunement, especially during the turbulent teen years. Through the lens of emotion coaching, we help parents learn to connect before they correct, to listen with empathy, and to respond rather than react.

This isn’t just good advice! It’s evidence-based. Our approach is grounded in the latest research from:

*Emotion Coaching (developed by Dr. John Gottman), which empowers parents to become their child’s “emotional GPS,”

*Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a mindfulness-based framework that helps parents anchor in their values and take purposeful action even in moments of stress or uncertainty.

Parenting isn’t just a responsibility; it’s a deeply human, relational practice. Across cultures and traditions, we’re reminded that how we show up for one another, especially in our families, shapes who we become. When we lead with presence, empathy, and intention, parenting becomes a form of connection, not just caretaking.

Here, you'll find:

*Guided workshops and reflection prompts rooted in Emotion coaching, ACT, and Jewish ethics

*Tools to strengthen emotional resilience for you and your child

*A supportive, judgment-free space to share your story and learn from others

*A parenting path that values presence over perfection

Whether you’re navigating meltdowns or meaningful conversations, Hineni Parenting is a space to say:
"I may not have all the answers, but I’m here. Fully. Open-hearted. Hineni."
