Bonnie McDaniel, Ph.D
Parent Coach | Educator
I am passionate about supporting others to deepen their self awareness, grow in their capacity to respond to emotions wisely, nurture satisfying relationships, and build lives full of purpose and meaning.
As a parent coach, I help clients gain clarity about their parenting challenges and gain confidence in their unique values and vision. I offer compassionate support to parents as they try out new tools and insights and move toward the future they want for their family.
My Ph.D is in Education from the University of Washington. I’m currently serving on the Washington State Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) Advisory Committee and teach workshops in SEL to parents and educators.
I am also the parent of three amazing teenagers who offer me regular opportunities to cultivate my own social and emotional skills and insight.

Testimonials
"The insight and wisdom Bonnie brings to parent coaching is unparalleled. With grace and compassion, she led me to discover new perspectives as I parented my three teens. Her nonjudgmental style combined with her deep content knowledge helped me gain clarity so that I could more calmly handle many difficult situations. My relationship with my boys has significantly improved after my time with her. Do not miss out on Bonnie!"

"Bonnie McDaniel is an outstanding parent coach. When we started our coaching sessions last summer, I was looking for a way to re-establish the emotional bond with my college-aged twin daughter. Bonnie gave me the tools to no only re-gain our connection, but strengthen it enormously (and it continues to grow). A big piece of the work had to do with re---asserting my role as a parent which included building back my parental self-confidence, along with my daughter's trust. Bonnie provided support and effective ideas every step of the way. Her coaching approach is not only steeped in science, but it's also non-judgemental and compassionate."
