Parenting can be the most rewarding experience of our lives. But parenting can also be a challenge. Even when things are going well, it’s common to feel overwhelmed and discouraged. When our child experiences their own personal struggles, it’s even more difficult. And while a child can work through those struggles in therapy, sometimes parents still need a helping hand. Things like divorce, adolescence and transitions into elementary, middle or high school can throw family life off balance. Parent coaching provides a safe place for parents to express their concerns, worries, and questions, and receive fresh insights and practical tools from an experienced professional.

Parent Coaching sessions can help parents:

• Learn skills and tools tailored to your family’s needs

• Understand the behavior of their child or teen

• Find increased connection with their child or teen

• Understand how their parenting style affects their child or teen

• Improve communication with their child or teen

• Increase cooperation and responsiveness with their child or teen

• Deal with stressful family situations

​Who Can Benefit from Parent Coaching?

Since additional education is not a requirement for parenthood, it can be helpful to seek support. Parent coaching can be beneficial for any parent who:

• ​Feels like their child or teen doesn't listen

• Feels like they struggle to understand their child or teen

• Feels like they struggle to communicate effectively with their child or teen

• Deals frequently with power struggles with their child or teen

• Feels that they have lost connection with their child or teen

• Feels unable to manage a developmental milestone or other shift in family dynamics
