Dr Taffeta Star Coaching
About Me
I support moms* and non-binary parents with a mix of intuition, cognitive and developmental science and holding space for the human needs of mothers as equal to their children. What a concept. Turns out everyone does better when everyone gets to be a full human!
I have a sense of humor, I genuinely like mothers, and I know what I'm doing as an intuitive. I have over 20 years’ experience working with children and families; first as a teacher of general and special education, and now as a professional academic in the areas of education and disability justice. My approach is grounded in neurodiversity and magick, as well as science. My expertise includes behavior as communication, literacy and learning as well as finding intuitive hits that lead to simple, applicable solutions for your wellbeing and joy: both mother and child.
*trans moms are moms and if you don't agree I won't be for you.
Education
My PhD is in Education Science from University of California, Irvine. My work in cognition and education has been featured on the cover of Languages, as well as in Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness; Computers and Education; Early Childhood Research Quarterly; and some other thick and dense stuff that will cure the most intense insomnia. I have presented my
work internationally and given invited talks at multiple universities, but...
what I really love is when parents tell me I helped them have joy and ease with their child.
