PARENT COACHING

"There is no such thing as perfect parenting. Your aim is not perfection. Your aim is presence."

- Dan Siegal 

Parenting doesn’t come with a handbook and often we don’t have the built in support we might wish for in navigating the challenges of parenthood. But you are not alone. I can provide you with the support you need to feel more grounded and connected to your child. I’ll help you understand what is happening in that growing brain and body from month to month and help you find the right tool kit for you to SURVIVE AND THRIVE as a parent.

Sometimes parents seek coaching to address (or prevent!) emotional and behavioral challenges around transitions. Change happens. Whether it’s changing schools, moving across country, divorce, the birth of a sibling- it’s tough for many little ones to just roll with it. I can help you find the unique supports that your child needs to understand the changes and cope with their feelings.

In other cases, coaching may be a necessary additional support to a child’s therapy. This more intensive support is aimed at helping parents develop a robust tool kit for supporting their child with more chronic or complex issues resulting from trauma. Check out the packages I offer that combine both of these services to comprehensively meet your family’s needs.

Parent coaching can be provided to one parent, multiple caregivers, or, in some cases, in a group setting including extended family or educators.
