What is Parent Coaching?

You’ve heard of life coaching and career coaching.  Enter parent coaching – a program dedicated to parents that offers alternative perspectives around family situations.  Parent coaching uncovers strategies to shift behavior and family dynamics. It helps single parents, couples, or a parent navigating a difficult divorce, achieve their parenting goals. I coach on how to survive and thrive the day-to-day behaviors that a resistant or withdrawn child might throw at you. 

Parent coaching is not clinical therapy. It’s not designed to delve into complicated family dynamics of the past, or work through crisis. My years of experience have made me very astute to knowing if a family needs to transition to professional clinical help – I can, and will, assist in arranging that move. Many therapists refer their clients to me for preliminary evaluation and to prepare them for traditional therapy.
