Parent Coaching
Individual Parent Coaching
Parenthood invites us to examine our own past experiences while establishing new ways of being in relationships. We work closely with parents and caregivers to deepen their understanding of their child’s emotional world within the context of the family system.
Through individualized parent coaching, we offer support with many challenging aspects of parenting, including limit setting, building connection, and creating meaningful family rituals. Our goal is to help you navigate parenthood with greater confidence and nurture a strong, secure bond with your child.
Upcoming Parent Workshops
Child-Parent-Relationship (C-P-R) Training
Give your children what they need most: You
When children have problems, sometimes they don’t have the words to talk about them. Play gives children a way to communicate feelings they don’t understand or can’t express any other way.
Play therapy has been shown to be an effective intervention with children for a variety of behavioral and emotional difficulties. Research has shown that motivated parents can be trained to be as effective as play therapists using play therapy skills with their own children, with as little as 20 hours of Child-Parent-Relationship (C-P-R) Training.
Research studies have shown that Child-Parent-Relationship (C-P-R) Training can:
Reduce or eliminate behavior problems
Enhance the parent-child relationship and the marital relationship
Develop responsibility and self-control in children
Increase children’s self-esteem and self-confidence
Increase parents’ feelings of warmth for their children
Child-Parent-Relationship (C-P-R) Training is conducted in 10 weekly, 90 min sessions. The atmosphere is friendly and accepting and the training interactive, making it enjoyable and interesting.
Some of the things you will learn include:
How to help your child open up to you
Therapeutic limit setting
Recognizing emotional needs and building self-esteem
Fostering creativity, self-control, and self-responsibility
