One-on-One Parent Coaching
As your parenting coach, I formulate individual strategies to enhance your relationship with your child and help you manage stress and overwhelm. I can work with you to practice skills that help you find your emotional center when you experience stress and to connect and positively engage with your child. You will also learn skills to manage emotional or behavioral concerns you have with your child. We work together to break each solution down into actions that you feel are manageable.
As a behavioral scientist, I rely solely on tools and strategies that are informed by the best available evidence. I have delivered parent coaching groups, workshops, and one-on-one sessions to parents, including those who have children with neurodiversity.
I have also written peer-reviewed research articles, toolkits, and a book chapter on parenting and family support strategies, for government and nonprofit organizations, including the World Health Organization and Save the Children. My coaching focuses primarily on motivating positive action, boundary setting, focus-shifting, effective communication, mindfulness, building habits that enhance coping, and emotional regulation.
one-on-one coaching sessions are tailored to help you with your specific needs:
Peace at Home Plan
For parents that want more positive interactions in their family life and the skills to manage stress and overwhelm. You will also get situational support to tackle a specific child emotional or behavior concern (e.g., sharing, tantrums, bedtime problems, going shopping, having visitors, self-esteem, chores, etc.).
In four 45-60-minute sessions, I will offer you several evidence-based approaches and guide you through the steps to implement changes. I take the guesswork out of finding a solution to your parenting concerns.
We’ll begin with a judgement-free, in-depth assessment that will allow me to give you detailed feedback about your strengths and opportunities for growth as a family. In our sessions, we’ll develop a parenting plan to meet your unique needs and discuss actions to tackle your concern and improve your overall wellness as a family.
I’ll be there to troubleshoot any growing pains while you implement your parenting plan and celebrate your new found peace. My parent-first approach directly addresses the emotional or behavioral concern you have about your child, while also providing you with the knowledge and support necessary to self-reflect on your life as an individual, and help you feel more at ease. After we work together you’ll have more time to focus on fun with your family.
