🌱 Thriving at Home - Personalized Support for Families Navigating ADHD
Build more calm, connection, and clarity at home—through nervous system-informed, relationship-centered coaching.
Family life is dynamic, messy, and full of growth edges—even in the best of times. When ADHD traits are in the mix—whether in a child, a parent, or both—those everyday challenges can feel bigger, louder, and harder to recover from. It’s not a matter of trying harder or parenting better. It’s about having the right kind of support: compassionate, individualized, and grounded in what helps real families thrive.
Thriving at Home offers support for families navigating the push-pull of structure and spontaneity, emotional intensity, and relational repair. Together, we’ll uncover rhythms that work, build on what’s already going well, and create systems that reduce stress—not just for your child, but for everyone in your home. No fixing. No shame. Just support that makes space for who you are and how you live.
Services offered online and in-person in the West Kootenays.
About Securely Thriving
Securely Thriving, is founded out of both lived experience and professional conviction: that meaningful support for ADHD must go deeper than behavior—and begin with connection, safety, and relationship. As a parent, educator, and somatic therapist, I’ve seen how nervous system regulation, attachment, and practical tools can transform not just a moment, but a whole family or classroom culture. This isn’t about perfection—it’s about creating the conditions where adults and children can feel safe enough to grow. Securely Thriving exists to walk alongside families, educators, and communities doing this brave, beautiful, often overwhelming work—with clarity, care, and compassion.

Week 1: Laying the Foundation – Understanding ADHD in the Family System
✳️ OUTCOME
A clearer understanding of how ADHD shows up in your family—across generations, behaviors, and nervous systems.
📝 DESCRIPTION
This week sets the stage. We’ll explore what ADHD actually is (and isn’t), how it can look different in children and adults, and why the “family system” matters when thinking about support. You’ll start noticing patterns not with blame, but with curiosity—and gain language to describe what’s been hard, what’s working, and what’s possible.
Week 2: Connection Before Correction
✳️ Outcome:
Tools for responding to challenging behavior with connection and emotional safety, not just consequences.
📝 Description:
Before we can guide or redirect, we have to connect. This week dives into attachment, counter-will, and the power of emotional safety. You’ll learn why “misbehavior” is often a stress response—and how to meet those moments in ways that build trust and cooperation instead of shutdown.
Week 3: Co-Regulation & the Body-Brain Connection
✳️ OUTCOME
Personalized co-regulation strategies that help both you and your child return to calm in moments of stress.
📝 DESCRIPTION
Meltdowns, shutdowns, and big emotions often aren't about willpower—they’re about nervous system overload. This week gives you a simple, powerful roadmap for co-regulation: the practice of lending your calm so your child can find theirs. You’ll also learn what dysregulation feels like in your own body, and how to stay grounded during tough moments.
Week 4: Rhythm & Play as Anchors
✳️ OUTCOME
Custom rhythms and playful rituals that support transitions, reduce chaos, and increase connection.
📝 DESCRIPTION
ADHD brains thrive with both structure and novelty. Rhythm gives your family something to lean on. Play gives you something to look forward to. This week helps you build consistent routines and spontaneous moments that soothe the nervous system and strengthen your relationship.
Week 5: Repair & Resilience
✳️ Outcome:
Confidence in how to repair after rupture—and how those moments deepen trust.
📝 Description:
All families experience conflict. What makes the difference is how we come back together. This week is about embracing imperfection, understanding the repair process, and using hard moments as opportunities for growth. You'll practice simple, powerful steps to re-connect after disconnect.
Week 6: Collaborative Support with Educators
✳️ OUTCOME
Personalized co-regulation strategies that help both you and your child return to calm in moments of stress.
📝 DESCRIPTION
Meltdowns, shutdowns, and big emotions often aren't about willpower—they’re about nervous system overload. This week gives you a simple, powerful roadmap for co-regulation: the practice of lending your calm so your child can find theirs. You’ll also learn what dysregulation feels like in your own body, and how to stay grounded during tough moments.
Week 7: Community & Trusted Adults
✳️ Outcome:
A realistic support map of caring adults and allies for both you and your child.
📝 Description:
You were never meant to do this alone. This week is about widening your circle: identifying trusted adults, leaning into community, and creating layers of support that help your child (and you) feel held. We’ll reflect on who your child feels safe with—and how to build more of those moments.
Week 8: Reclaiming Your Spark (Care for the Caregiver)
✳️ OUTCOME
A personalized, sustainable self-care plan that nurtures your nervous system and creativity.
📝 DESCRIPTION
You matter, too. This final week invites you to turn inward, reflect on what fuels you, and create simple rituals that restore your sense of self. Self-care isn’t another task—it’s a way of staying connected to the person your child needs most: you, fully alive.
