WELCOME TO
Take it Outdoors Parenting

Helping frustrated parents restore balance in the home by setting boundaries and repairing relationships between parents and children.

ABOUT US
Life Changing Parenting

At Take It Outdoors Parenting, I help parents regain control by setting clear and consistent boundaries. Many parents take a funneling approach to parenting—giving their children complete freedom early on, only to struggle with setting boundaries as they grow older. By the time children reach adolescence, parents often face resistance from strong-willed kids who push back against sudden rule changes.

I believe children are not inherently bad; rather, they develop behaviors based on what they have learned. With Take It Outdoors Parenting, I’ll guide you in setting effective goals and establishing boundaries—so you can foster a positive relationship with your child and eliminate the need for arguments.

Parenting Seminar: Communicating with Your Child

Strong communication is the foundation of a healthy parent-child relationship, especially as children grow and approach their teenage years. Join us for an insightful online seminar, “Parenting Seminar: Communicating with Your Child,” where you’ll gain practical tools to better understand, connect with, and guide your child through life’s challenges.

Date: Monday, September 15th
Time: 6:30 PM – 7:30 PM (via Zoom)
Facilitator: Lee Hickinbotham

This seminar is designed to help parents:

  • Address common communication barriers with children.

  • Build stronger trust and openness at home.

  • Learn strategies for guiding kids as they transition into adolescence.

  • Gain confidence in handling difficult conversations with empathy.

With real-life examples, proven strategies, and expert guidance, this session will leave you better equipped to support your child’s emotional and social development.

Reserve your spot today and join the conversation that can transform your family’s future.

Empowering Growth
Helping You Find Clarity and Calm in Your Parenting
Building Stronger Teens

As a parent, you want nothing more than to guide your child with love and confidence. But in today’s world—filled with social media, peer pressure, gaming, academic stress, and late nights—it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, frustrated, and worried about their future.

You want your child to thrive, build healthy friendships, and develop the skills they need for success. Yet right now, it may feel like they’re struggling, and you’re questioning whether you’re doing enough. Let me assure you—you haven’t failed. You may just need new strategies and support.

I help teens build confidence, manage emotions, and find direction—so they grow into calm, capable, and connected young adults.

A Coach Who’s Walked The Same Path. I was a strong willed teen, unable to control my emotions, argued with my parents and did not like being told what to do.  As my parents tried to discipline me, I pushed back. It wasn’t until someone started to listen to me, provided a connection and enabled me take ownership in my mistakes, that I started to grow.

My partner and I, Dr. Nikki Citrella, will listen, provide unbiased insight and help your teen take ownership in their actions. This is not a quick fix. Dr. Nikki and I spend a lot of time building rapport to earn the trust of your teen.
Join me for a free discovery session, and together, we’ll work on setting boundaries, strengthening relationships, and restoring balance in your home.
