Megan Barella, MS, Parent Educator, Family Mediator, and Co-Parenting Coaching

Divorce holds the promise of restoring positive communication and healthy boundaries, healing insecure attachment relationships, and creating a family ecosystem in which all members have their emotional needs met. Let’s help your family thrive through divorce, and come out stronger and more whole on the other side. 

As a co-parenting coach, I help you create a new story for your family with the best interests of your children at the forefront. Within your current conflicts and challenges, exists the positive potential and transformation to create a new, more positive reality for your family -  and for yourself.

I am a Certified Positive Discipline Parent Educator and Family Mediator with an MS in Conflict Resolution focusing on the intersection between conflict transformation, Interpersonal Neurobiology (the brain science of human relationships), and trauma healing. 

As the founder of the Happy Home positive parenting coaching programs, I’m on a mission to heal families one home at a time. I have 10 years experience working with thousands of parents to transform negative intergenerational family cycles, let go of fear-based discipline practices, and create a foundation of positive behavior, empathy and empowerment in families. I’m also an intervention specialist for strong-willed and highly sensitive children. 

As a third-generation single mom, I understand first-hand the implications of divorce on children. I have acted as a parenting coordinator for divorcing couples, assisted parents in establishing and implementing parenting time schedules and transitions, supported co-parents to get on the same page in terms of discipline and parenting styles, and empowered parents with the skills and plans to support their children’s emotions and behavior during one of life’s greatest transitions: divorce.
