Praise for Chris White M.D.

“Dr. Christopher White is as brilliant as he is compassionate. He offers a beautiful and integrative approach to parenting that will enrich your life as a parent, and nourish the internal life of your children. Dr. White brings humor, wisdom, and tremendous empathy to his work, and has deeply touched my own life as a mother, as well as the lives of my students. I give him my highest recommendation.”
— Dr. Shauna L. Shapiro, Associate Professor Santa Clara University,
Co-author, The Art and Science of Mindfulness: Integrating Mindfulness into Psychology and the Helping Professions

“At one time or another, every parent wishes they had a road map to becoming a more loving, patient, and compassionate parent. For those lucky enough to study Chris White’s highly creative and integrative program, Essential Parenting, now we do! He has created a top-notch and innovative program that can totally transform not only the way we parent, but also the way we live in the world.”
— Nora Issaacs, freelance journalist and editor, mother of two

“…nothing is more important than our ability to be mindful and present with our kids. Chris White has made helping parents achieve this his life’s work and I cannot recommend him and his Essential Parenting course enough. His ability to see the big picture and to help parents become who their children need them to be is a gift. Chris is a remarkable guy and if you get a chance to work with him, you and your family will benefit greatly.”
— Todd Sarner, MA MFT, Director of Transformative Parenting and father

“Essential Parenting puts raising children where it belongs: at the center of our lives. Dr. Chris White demonstrates over and over again that the path of effective parenting and the path of personal growth and fulfillment are one and the same.  There are many courses that say, “try this”; this is a course that says, “live this.”  I can honestly say that by following the precepts of Essential Parenting I am able to be a better parent by having become a better person.”
— Stephen H. Sulmeyer, J.D., Ph.D., father

“When I read Chris’ blog I am inevitably reminded of what is important: being present and conscious with the one’s I love. Chris teaches with love, depth, curiosity, and the pure desire to create a world where children grow into the mature adults they are meant to be.

I attended one of his classes the last time I was in San Francisco.  I felt like I was one of those lucky people who got the chance to sit in a small group with a teacher who would soon only be able to be seen in rooms of 500 or more.”
