Elina Greiff

Elina Greiff is an experienced Conscious Parenting Coach and a Gottman Certified Educator. After working for over 20 years in the corporate world as an IT leader, coach and an emotional intelligence trainer, Elina realized that her passion was teaching and coaching parents on how to apply emotional intelligence concepts to parenting. Elina coaches parents on how to uncover and replace their limiting beliefs with deeper self-awareness and more empowering, life-affirming beliefs.

Elina’s work incorporates the core principles of positive psychology, human motivation theories, child development research, and brain science. She believes that the sooner people learn emotional intelligence skills, the more fulfilling, meaningful and successful their lives will be. In order for parents to raise emotionally intelligent children, they have to be willing to learn those core principles themselves.

Parents who are more self-aware, can, in turn, help their children learn emotional awareness and self-regulation. Elina believes that when parents learn what it means to parent consciously – those ordinary, every-day moments of interaction between them and their children is where extraordinary lessons are learned and deeper connection is created.

Elina works with parents one-on-one as well as in group settings. In her work, she is employing research-based, proven strategies to teach and coach others on parenting with emotional intelligence. Elina’s passion is to help parents deeply understand and connect with their children and to restore creative collaboration, mutual respect, and joyfulness within the family home.
