What is a Parent Coach?

The Parent Coach is a new paradigm for supporting families in a world of complex societal/cultural pressures. It is a partnership between the parent(s) who wants to accomplish some specific change or goals with themselves or the family. Sometimes there are situations that require a ‘closer look” or something at stake -a challenge, goal and a desire to accelerate results. Often exacerbating for the parent is a feeling of frustration about the lack of clarity, confidence or resources needed to ensure success. The Parent Coach becomes the motivational and inspirational support.

Parents have goals accompanied with desired outcomes. The Parent Coach offers effective strategies to refine what the parent needs or wants to changes—often helping to reach that “ah ha” moment. Coaching, unlike therapy, concentrates on the families as they are now and what they are willing to do to get where they want to be in the future. Coaching is one of the greatest gifts you can give to yourself and your family.

Why Parent Coaching Makes a Difference for the Family?

The Parent Coach has the capacity to observe, listen and to provide attention to what is not said; to come to the core of the issue and provide the right actions that may not be so evident. Using a full range of intuitive and practical techniques to inspire, the Parent Coach encourages and supports a family to discover the balance of daily life.

Communication is the ultimate springboard to balance in the household. Listening and responding are so imperative to reaching the best outcome of a situation. Situations don’t have to be dire. When you think about any situation, there is ebb and flow, ups and downs, good and bad. The Parent Coach strives to define the triggers that takes a circumstance down the wrong path or the inappropriate word that causes a misunderstanding. One of my goals is to assist parents by giving them the skills to bring the right words to the right situation to the right actions.

As your coach, I am a consultant, mentor and guide. In this capacity, I offer practical solutions to challenging situations and make suggestions for the everyday that help maintain harmony in the home. It’s a matter of enhancing what’s working and tweaking what’s troublesome.
I recognize that each family is unique; each can present different issues. It is the different perceptions and sensitivities that require a customized approach to each family.

My goal for the family is to be the conduit to balance. That at end of the day, with a sigh of joy, there is a routine without negative drama and a shared celebration of accomplishments.
Essentially, helping you achieve and maintain harmony in the home is my passion.
