 FAQs

  • Parent coaching focuses on building your skills and confidence as a parent rather than providing direct therapy to your child. I teach you evidence-based strategies that you can use immediately in your daily routines. This approach empowers you to handle challenges independently and creates lasting change because you're implementing strategies consistently at home.

  • As a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, I can conduct comprehensive behavioral assessments to understand why challenging behaviors are happening and develop individualized strategies based on your child's specific needs. I don't offer one-size-fits-all solutions - everything is tailored to your child's developmental level, family dynamics, and your parenting values.

  • Absolutely! While I have specialized training in autism and ADHD, I work with all families dealing with behavioral challenges. Whether you're struggling with tantrums, sibling rivalry, morning routines, or screen time battles, the behavioral strategies I teach are effective for neurotypical children too.

  • Yes! I work with parents to develop strategies that can be used both at home and shared with your child's school team. I also provide school consultation services and can help facilitate communication between home and school to ensure consistent approaches across environments.

  • Parent coaching is perfect if you want to build your own skills and confidence in handling behavioral challenges. It's ideal for families who prefer to implement strategies themselves rather than having someone else work directly with their child. I offer a free 15-minute consultation to help you determine if this approach fits your family's needs and goals.
