Family Services
our Mindful approach
At Mindful Me Behavior Support, we believe support should fit into real life, not the other way around. Our services are designed to be flexible, accessible, and responsive to each family’s unique needs.
We provide virtual services to families across Colorado, allowing us to offer consistent, collaborative support wherever you are. For families in the Roaring Fork Valley, we also offer a limited number of home, school and community-based sessions when in-person support is the best fit.
Parent coaching is a space to pause, step back from the overwhelm, and get clear on what’s really going on at home—so you can move forward with more confidence, calm, and connection.
Together, we build a parenting toolkit that fits your family’s values, rhythms, and needs. This isn’t about doing everything perfectly or adding more to your plate—it’s about finding what actually works for you and your child.
Parent coaching
-
In our work together, we focus on what feels most present in your day-to-day life. This may include feeling more grounded and confident as a parent, strengthening your connection with your child, reducing power struggles, or navigating big emotions and challenging behaviors. We also look at communication, developmental questions, routines, executive functioning, and navigating diagnoses when needed.
We support you in making sense of what’s happening, creating more consistency between caregivers when applicable, and turning insight into practical, doable steps.
You don’t have to figure it all out alone. We’ll work together to find a way forward that fits your family.
-
Parent coaching typically takes place twice a month, with the flexibility to increase or decrease over time based on your family’s unique needs and goals. This rhythm is intentional—we believe meaningful change happens between sessions, not just during them.
Spacing our time together allows you to truly integrate what you’re learning, practice strategies in real life, and build confidence in what works for your child and your family. This model is designed to support low session time with high impact at home, so progress feels sustainable, not overwhelming.
-
After every session, you will receive a personalized written action plan created specifically for your family. This is not a general recap—it is a clear, structured roadmap that reflects what we focused on during our time together, what we are working toward, and the specific strategies to practice between sessions.
Instead of relying on memory or trying to hold onto everything from a session, you leave with something concrete you can return to, use, and build from in your day-to-day life. This helps turn insight into action in a way that feels clear and manageable.
Your plan is designed to support real-life implementation so you always know what to focus on next and how to continue building progress between sessions.
-
Parent coaching sessions are held virtually, making it possible to receive support right in your own home. This allows us to work with real-life situations in real time and develop strategies that are practical, relevant, and grounded in your day-to-day experiences.
Meeting virtually also supports ease and consistency—sessions fit into your day without travel or transition time, making it simpler to stay engaged and follow through on the work between sessions.
Children learn best through connection, curiosity, and joy. Our play-based intervention uses the natural language of childhood—play—to build trust, strengthen relationships, and support meaningful skill development. This approach is grounded in each child’s unique strengths and needs.
PLay based Intervention
-
For children ages 0–5, parents participate in every session and learn alongside their child through hands-on coaching and guided interaction. We use play, connection, and everyday routines to teach practical strategies that can be carried into daily life.
Sessions focus on foundational developmental skills including communication, early emotional regulation, social connection, joint attention, imitation, play skills, and early independence. Depending on your child’s needs, we may also support daily living skills and the reduction of challenging behaviors. The emphasis is on building confidence for parents and creating meaningful skill development through real-time practice.
-
For children ages 5–10, parent participation is flexible and based on each child’s individual needs and goals. Our work follows a skill-building model grounded in social-emotional learning and psychological flexibility.
We integrate behavior support with mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help children build awareness of their thoughts, feelings, and actions while developing skills to navigate challenges with greater ease. Sessions are structured around four core areas: values and emotions, relationships and identity, flexibility and thought awareness, and coping and problem-solving. These are taught through child-led activities, mindfulness, and experiential skill practice.
-
Sessions typically take place twice a month, with the option to increase or decrease over time based on your child’s unique needs and developmental goals. This structure is intentional—it allows time between sessions for meaningful practice, integration, and continued growth in real-life settings where skills are actually used.
We focus on steady, sustainable progress that builds over time, rather than frequent sessions without space for real-world application.
-
After each session, families receive a personalized written session note that outlines what was focused on, key observations, and clear next steps for continued support. This creates a consistent roadmap so you always know what skills are being targeted and how to support your child between sessions.
Each plan is designed to turn session work into real-life progress in a way that feels clear, manageable, and actionable.
-
Sessions take place in your child’s natural environments, including the home and community settings where they are most comfortable and where learning naturally occurs. This allows us to build skills in real-time, within the contexts your child is already navigating, so strategies are directly meaningful, functional, and able to carry into everyday life. This natural environment approach is intentional and highly effective, allowing us to focus on meaningful skill development where it actually matters most.
Support is brought directly into your home virtually, or for local families, in-person support is available in the home or within community settings.
