for Real-Life Challenges (Ages 2-12)

Whether you're dealing with typical developmental phases or supporting a child with autism, ADHD, or other unique needs, you don't have to figure it out alone.

How Parent Coaching Works
Parent coaching is a collaborative process focused on supporting you as the caregiver. We work together to understand what’s driving your child’s behavior and develop practical strategies that fit your family’s routines, values, and daily life.
This isn’t therapy for your child or a one-size-fits-all plan. It’s individualized, evidence-based coaching designed to help you feel more confident responding to challenges as they come up — with support along the way.

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.

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.
