Emotional Regulation for Parents

with Courtney Johannesen

Practical tools for calmer, more connected parenting – and done-for-you resources for the professionals who support them.

Parenting brings deep love and real challenges. If emotional triggers, stress, or patterns from your own upbringing are making it hard to show up the way you want to, you’re not alone.

And if you’re a therapist, counselor, coach, or educator supporting families, you deserve tools that are already built so you can focus on the work that matters.

Hi, I’m Courtney

I’m a nervous system educator, mindfulness teacher, and parent coach. Over 8,000 people have taken my regulation courses, and I’ve spent years translating the science of nervous system regulation into language that actually lands with real parents in real moments.

This work is personal for me. I grew up knowing I didn’t want to repeat the patterns I’d experienced. Understanding my own nervous system first – learning to regulate before I could show up differently for the people I love – changed everything. It’s why I believe so deeply that when a parent learns to regulate, the whole family feels it.

I work with parents directly through courses and resources, and I create done-for-you tools for the therapists, counselors, coaches, and educators who support families every day.

Whether you’re a parent trying to break a cycle or a professional trying to resource the families in your care, you’re in the right place.

I give Courtney my highest recommendation. She is crystal clear with her instructions and creates the perfect balance between mindful meditation and physical movement. Courtney is also sensitive to each student’s level and has always been able to customize her program accordingly. She has a a very nice and patient manner, and her classes have had a wonderful impact on my health. Her Yoga classes have also provided a terrific means for stress relief enabling me to face each day with more energy and a brighter outlook.

My health has improved physically, mentally, and emotionally. Physically I have so much more energy and can do more. Mentally, and consequently, emotionally I have more focused thoughts, and can stay in the moment. This helps me to deal with what life has to offer in a more balanced way.

Courtney puts a smile on my face with her grace and heartfelt words. She’s truly a gem!
