. . . with Dr. Kathy in the comfort of your home, office (or coffee shop!) while the kids are in school or napping!

In addition to offering one-on-one parent and life coaching, Dr. Kathy has listened to the requests of her clients and made available this unique group coaching program.

Coaching within a group brings the cost down per individual and provides everyone with the added benefit of discovering you are not alone in your struggles. In other words, you’ll not only pick up an arsenal of self-help tools from Dr. Kathy, but you’ll also learn from the collective wisdom of the group!

For upcoming group coaching topics and sessions, check out our Calendar. To arrange group coaching with your friends, email kathy@family-empower.com or call (503) 292-4162.

Hi! I’m Dr. Kathy. Welcome to my website! Although Family Empowerment Network is formally closed, we want to keep these resources available to you. Our belief is that parents are the most wise and intuitive about what is best for their children. However, parents sometimes need the support of effective, timeless, compassionate parenting information and strategies. On this website you will find our three parenting books on boys, girls, and kids’ social lives and ten years of monthly newsletter articles. In addition, a powerful, under-recognized resource is the support of other parents. Here you will find how to use our books as discussion guides for monthly self-led parenting groups. One last resource: I am still available to give talks and workshops.
