What to Expect From Parent Coaching

Please watch the video below to get a sense of my approach to parent coaching. To learn more about how parent coaching could work in your unique situation, please contact me for more information. I’m always happy to talk with parents and find out how I can be helpful.

If we work together

I will give you all the magic answers to solve your parenting dilemmas. That sounds great, but let’s be honest. If there were a magic bullet, we would all have found it by now. Parenting teens and young adults, particularly those who are struggling, is a very challenging job. But you are not alone! While I can’t promise to give you easy answers, I can promise that I can help you understand your child better, communicate with your child better, set limits and boundaries better, and feel better about yourself and your family.

The Coaching Process

will start with your story. I am ready to listen without judgment to exactly what your struggle has been and to appreciate your current challenges. We will explore every aspect of your experience so that you can feel completely heard and understood. The next step will be for us to decide on your individual priorities. What is bothering you the most? What is the most challenging? From there, we will focus on areas that will be the most helpful to you and your family. Depending on your situation, we may involve other members of the family from time to time.

I will be

by your side step by step as we explore what is going on at home and how we can evolve the family situation for everyone’s benefit. As we go through the process, you will learn about your child, yourself, and your family. While I can’t really offer magic solutions, if the process is working, the knots in your stomach will loosen, you will worry less and sleep more, and you will feel more confident in your approach to parenting.
