Nothing really prepares you to become a parent. Some of us were lucky enough to have parents that set a good example. But others grew up in homes where the dynamic between child and parent was anything but functional or consistently loving.
But the truth is, even if you did have loving parents that did right by you 24/7, you can never be fully prepared to handle sticky situations with your own children.
This is where parenting coaching comes in.
Coaching is a bit different from traditional psychotherapy or counseling in that its focus is more goal-directed. Whereas traditional therapy may have you spend weeks exploring past events to recognize how they have contributed to current moods and behaviors, parenting coaching helps you choose a goal and offers tried and true techniques to help get the outcomes you desire.
Who is Parenting Coaching For?
Parenting coaching is for any parent that wishes to both strengthen the relationship with their child while also maintaining boundaries and expectations in the parent/child relationship.
As children get older and become teenagers, it can be very difficult to balance having a close, loving relationship with your child while also effectively preparing them for what is to come. It is challenging for many parents to navigate how best to support their child, particularly when that child is struggling with mental health issues.
