Ashley Patek

Ashley Patek is an OT, certified parent coach, Empathic Witnessing practitioner, and conscious mama who helps people re-design their parenting experiences by focusing on the whole-parent, whole-child, and whole-family system. She believes that the way we parent stems from our own childhoods, and as we parent our children, there is an invitation to re-parent ourselves. This is why she offers parent coaching and shadow work sessions for a more conscious, connected home.
