Parents and Experts Are BOTH Raving

The course was very helpful, especially for parents with kids that have different medical and health issues or concerns. It taught me to be more insightful of feelings I might be having as well as those my kids may have. I really learn to be more insightful from the inside out and face and question reality before I jump to any conclusions. It forces me to slow down and decide what is the best thing to do before proceeding with snap judgements or decisions. I felt that the course had improved me as a person as well as a parent.

- Parent of a child with significant medical conditions

Kristin is a fantastic facilitator and instructor. The insightful content was matched by the meaningful discussions Kristin elicited from participants. You will laugh, cry, struggle, and grow as you learn and apply the techniques that Kristin shares to calm your little ones during a meltdown. You may brave hard to face truths, but you will have a supportive group and fearless leader to guide you! This is course is worth your time, effort, and resources.

- Nathan B

I highly recommend this course for any parents who are struggling with understanding their kids' strong feelings as well as those who really want to know the best ways to navigate this world of parenting and dealing with daily or regular melt downs. This course also goes through strategies to work with schools and other care providers to achieve the goal of raising happy and resilient students in various settings.

Meet Your Coach - Kristin Espinosa

Meet Your Coach

I’m Kristin Espinosa, LMHC—a licensed therapist, mom to a neurodivergent child, and once a “sad, angry kid” myself. I know what it feels like to try everything and still feel like nothing works, to be dismissed by professionals, and to wonder if you’re overthinking your child’s struggles. You’re not. You know your child best.

That’s why I created Meltdown Mastery: to give parents the tools, compassion, and confidence I once needed. My approach leaves no stone unturned—blending professional expertise with lived experience so you’re equipped to handle meltdowns anywhere, anytime, without losing your cool.

If you’re ready for real strategies and a coach who gets it—because she’s lived it—you’re in the right place.
