A driving force for Brenda Hunter has always been to understand the profound nature of human interaction and the value of love, connection and acceptance. Having earned a degree in sociology/social work she began a career in the field of child abuse where that driving force exploded into a passion that has been her life’s mission ever since.

​

   With a determination to improve communication, empathy, and family dynamics, Brenda has provided services to thousands of children and parents which continues to humble her and strengthen her resolve in the human spirit. She specializes in parent education, child abuse prevention, infant/adolescent development, and pregnancy related issues.

​

   Brenda believes the way in which humans enter the world, how parents view their roles, and our individual abilities to grow beyond fear and judgement, sets the tone for deeper connection, greater acceptance, and joy. Knowing this, Brenda deepened her social work experience and education, by obtaining her Masters degree and receiving additional training from the California Department of Education, Josephson Institute of Ethics, and Hospice of the Conejo. She also holds certificates in childbirth education, labor support training and infant massage. She views ethical behavior, compassion and personal development as the starting point for all endeavors. As a Certified Mindfulness Meditation Teacher and Mentor, the gifts of mindfulness meditation are at the core of all her programs.
