Todd Sarner, MFT is a psychotherapist and parenting coach who has spent two decades helping thoughtful, growth-minded parents create calmer homes and stronger relationships with their kids. He is the founder of Transformative Parenting and creator of the Transformative Parenting Process Intensive, a comprehensive coaching program that has guided thousands of families toward less conflict, more cooperation, and deeper connection.

Mentored by renowned developmental psychologist Dr. Gordon Neufeld, Todd served as a Faculty Member of the Neufeld Institute, where he taught the science of attachment and resilience. His work blends clear, compassionate leadership ("Alpha Parenting") with practical tools grounded in neuroscience and child development, especially vital in an age shaped by screens and AI.

Todd's first book, The Calm & Connected Parent, is an attachment-first guide to raising resilient kids. It walks readers through a three-phase transformation-Attachment & Connection, Environment & Regulation, and Discipline & Behavior-showing parents not just what to do, but who to be: a steady, attuned leader their child can trust.

Known for his warm, direct teaching style and real-world strategies, Todd equips parents to navigate daily challenges-sibling friction, emotional outbursts, screen battles-while building the long-term capacities kids need to thrive: security, self-regulation, and healthy independence.
