Parent Coaching
It’s been a rough day, and you are drained. You are tired of arguing with your moody teen, reassuring your anxiety-ridden child, or tiptoeing around your daughter who is struggling with disordered eating. You feel emotionally exhausted and tired of walking on eggshells. Ultimately, you are worried that you are going about this parenting thing all wrong. This is where I come in to help you.
Parent coaching is a collaborative approach where I work directly with you to help you develop concrete strategies and skills for supporting your child and their individual needs. This is especially helpful for parenting kids with challenges such as anxiety or ADHD, as well as those approaching life transitions such as going away to college.
I will help you with specific approaches for you to use to address the worries you have about your child and your relationship with them. Maybe your teen shuts down every time you try to talk with them. Maybe your child’s anxiety is running the household. Or perhaps you are facing a divorce and are unsure how to support your child(ren) through the transition.
Parent coaching focuses on practical, present-moment solutions, empowering you without having to involve your child in any sessions. I work with parents across the country to provide a safe space to voice concerns while offering a non-judgmental, empathetic, and grounding perspective. Our collaboration will give you the support you crave while navigating your child’s behavioral and emotional needs.
Some key aspects of Parent Coaching are as follows:
- Focused support for whatever you are facing
- Practical tools and strategies that you can use immediately
- Building confidence for you as a parent
- Flexible, remote sessions that fit your life
We all need help sometimes. As not only a clinician but a parent myself, I know all too well that raising children is hard – in a variety of ways, and for a variety of reasons. We can feel alone in our struggles and unsure how to reach out. You know your child best and interact with them far more than any therapist could. Working with me will empower you and equip you with effective tools to strengthen your parent-child relationship and give you more confidence in your parenting abilities.
