INTEGRATIVE EDUCATION

Services for Children, Adolescents, Adults, Parents, and Educators

about Integrative education

Every child is unique and has something special to share with the world.

You may already know that our newest generations of children are different — not only in how they learn, but also in how they function and experience the world. If we truly want them to experience an authentic and fulfilling life, they require a different form of education: one that goes beyond the mind and standardized models, to access the wisdom of their very heart and soul — the true source of wisdom, inspiration, love, and wholeness.

An Integrative Education provides innovative teachings and pioneering learning modalities that empowers every child to build an awareness of their true nature and realize their full and authentic potential.

If you relate to any of the following, you are not alone. There is a path ahead that is full of promise.

Children & Adolescents

If your child has unique learning abilities, struggles with school, emotions, anxiety, or a sense of belonging; is resistant, defiant, or unmotivated, and you are unsure how best to support them, there is hope.

Heightened Awareness

If your child is empathic, highly sensitive, or struggles with healthy boundaries, pleasing others, making friends, anxiety, self-regulation, tics, or other misunderstood behaviors at home or school, there is a way to provide the guidance and support they need to thrive.

Support for Parents

If you, your child, or your family are struggling, I can assure you there is a way to establish greater communication, connection, harmony, and ease.

welcome

I'm Kim Southerland. I’m an educational therapist, a mother, and an energy intuitive.

Parenting can be one of the most rewarding, and at times, challenging endeavors. Parenting and educating a child or adolescent with different learning abilities or heightened sensitivities can be even more complex.

Drawing upon decades of personal and professional experience, I provide practical and grounded guidance along with intuitive insight and multidimensional communication that will foster an understanding of your child on a deep level. My goal is to help you access greater trust and clarity in your inner wisdom as a guiding force for your child.

It would be my honor to be the helping hand I wish I had during a similar time in my life.

    — Jackie, Parent

“When I was five years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy.’ They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.”

— John Lennon
