HI, I’M RENEE VILLANUEVA

My personal experience of breaking generational patterns, overcoming unhealthy cycles that didn't serve me and learning to self-regulate has fueled my passion for helping other parents. Through this process, I have not only learned how to manage my own emotions but also how to guide my daughter in regulating hers, fostering a healthier and more supportive family dynamic.

By working towards healing my attachment style and nervous system, I strive to show up as a better individual and parent. My mission is to support other parents in their journey towards self-awareness and emotional regulation, helping them break free from unhealthy patterns and build stronger connections with their children. Together, we can create a nurturing environment where both parents and children can thrive.

As a licensed clinical therapist (LCSW), my experience in maternal mental health and supporting mothers in healing from intergenerational and childhood trauma has laid the foundation for my work as a parent coach. I am passionate about helping other moms feel less overwhelmed, find calm in the chaos, and connect more deeply with themselves and their children.
