Parenting, unschooling and spiritual mentoring
Is this your situation?
You have a strong desire to live peacefully with your children and you are willing to look within yourself to get clear of old patterns and beliefs that no longer serve you. You don’t struggle with your children all the time, but you are hitting a few challenges. It might be something like …….
❧ Your child is doing something that is driving you crazy. It might be swearing, hitting, lots of screen time or eating junk food, or
❧ You’re feeling overwhelmed, stressed and exhausted and don’t know how you are ever going to relax, or
❧ You have trouble dealing with the intense meltdowns or anxieties of your child, or
❧ You have worries about your child’s learning and you’d like some support around unschooling or home education, or
❧ You’re noticing a pattern of self-judgment and a belief that you’re not ‘good enough’ at this parenting thing.
I know that you’re not looking for generic parenting advice. You want insights from someone who’s been in a similar situation and who can help you to see the way forward with confidence. Someone who has direct experience in walking the peaceful parenting or unschooling path.
You want help to find unique solutions for your own unique family.
I mentor parents who want to live joyfully and respectfully with their children and would like a little help getting there.
What is mentoring?
Mentoring is not the same as coaching. I’m not trying to make you a better parent or push you towards certain goals. This is not about fixing, healing or improving you.
I’m offering my experience and my loving attention. I’m also happy to share the skills I have learned that have helped make my own parenting journey more joyful. I’m completely open about the challenges that I’ve faced and the steps I have taken to get through them.
I can help you pinpoint the the cause of your stress and guide you through a process to clear your mind and dissolve your worries. I can help you find your inner calm and see the way forward.
Each mentoring session is customized to what you need and how I can best serve you.
What kinds of mentoring do I offer?

How much does it cost?
Mentoring sessions are $100 and usually go for 60 – 80 minutes.
I’m happy to arrange longer sessions if this suits you better.
Mentoring is a flexible arrangement to suit your individual needs and there is no fixed timetable or number of sessions. You decide how often we talk and guide the direction our sessions take.
Contact me for a free 30 minute Introductory Mentoring Session to let me know what you’re looking for. If we seem to be a good fit, we’ll discuss next steps.
Is there an issue that is keeping you awake at night?
I can help. Find relief from the stress and feel confident a solution is in reach.
Learn a process for questioning your stressful thoughts that you can use in any difficult situation.
If you don’t want to dive straight into a zoom session with me, that’s fine. I’m happy to have a conversation via email to get to know you a bit and see if we are a good fit.
A Zoom video meeting or phone call option is available for all mentoring sessions.

Freya’s support and guidance has inspired me in many ways. She has helped me to open up to a world I didn’t know existed, and shown me how to bring Peace, Joy and Freedom into my life. Her words always point directly to what I am wanting to hear. Such a wise soul. — Leisa
Freya has intuitively known how to guide me to reconnect with my own personal experience of pure love and joy. No matter what’s been happening in my life or what inner turbulence I’ve been experiencing, she has without fail, led my awareness back to my heart space. — Jodie
Freya has only ever seen the true me, not the drama, stress, anger, fear and situations. She has always been able to speak to me, directly past all that other stuff to show me how to wade through it and find what the True me wants and needs. From doing this with her I have come to place where I am stronger, well, following my joys, my relationships have improved with my children and husband. I am no longer a slave to my built up walls of protection from the ‘world’, I no longer go to bed with a anxiety and constant worry. I am free to be me, because I have had all I needed within me all along… Freya has helped me see that. — Keely
More Testimonials
I am so grateful that I have had the opportunity to meet Freya via her online consultations. Freya is compassionate, non-judgmental and incredible knowledgeable about supporting children with unschooling and conscious parenting. She is also honest and open about her own experiences. There is no fakeness or pretense when talking to Freya. I particularly love the way Freya challenges me and offers alternative viewpoints. My online sessions with Freya have been extremely beneficial for my own personal growth as a parent and I always feel wonderful and positive after talking to her. I highly recommend Freya for mentoring, guidance or support.

Mentoring clientFood/screen time/homework & grades/exercise – now that I have let go of controlling my children I feel a lot more peaceful/accepting on the inside and I’m finding our relationship has changed dramatically. They are starting to come towards me more for connection as they’re adjusting to me ‘letting go of control’. They are more willing to respond with kindness to my request for help around the house as I’m not often going into their bedrooms interrogating them about how much food/screen/exercise/homework they have done. When I’m away from them I’m not mulling over how much screen time or ‘junk’ food have they had while I was away. I’m noticing that they are sometimes looking to regulate themselves rather than me trying to regulate them. It’s still early days but I ultimate goal is that my children will become fully self regulated and not be dependent on me to do it for them. Thank you Freya for supporting me to turn my whole concept of parenting around – I feel it has set us all free!!!

Mentoring clientFreya supported and guided me on my way of becoming a more peaceful human being and better mum. Thanks to Freya my relationship with myself improved and I became the mum I always wanted to be. To be able to question all my thoughts became one of the most important tools I have in my life. Freya’s guidance was extremely important, especially at the beginning where on my own I could hardly identify any thoughts I had, but she could pick them up right away. She helped me understand how they had influenced my feelings and reactions. I learned that by changing my thoughts I can change my life. I couldn’t be who I am today without Freya – she really brought a lot of awareness into my life and provided me with a spiritual guidance when I needed it.
I would recommend Freya to anyone who is ready to improve their life through self-inquiry and all parents who want to become the best parents for their children.

Peaceful parenting unlocked my repressed emotions.
When you chose peaceful parenting you may not get much peace for quite a while. What I experienced for many years was far from peaceful. An avalanche of emotions were expressed by my sons that unlocked my own repressed emotions. There was rage, terror, grief and more. It was a FULL ON experience of the…

Are your children getting enough socialisation?
How many homeschoolers HAVEN’T been asked “But what about socialisation?” by extended family, friends or random strangers? Zero. Exactly none. We’ve ALL been grilled on this topic. Which makes some of us a bit jumpy and defensive. Hence the repetition of this question: “Will my children get enough socialisation if we home educate?” I’ve been…
