This type of coaching is for students who have an existing ADHD diagnosis, suspect ADHD, or struggle with executive functioning. Many students struggle with the 'how' when it comes to school or everyday tasks: how to start, organize, stay on task, and finish work or assignments. When there is a lack of clarity or the tools to manage their workload, it can be frustrating for both them and their families. Coaching is intended to lay the foundation for how to get these things done with less stress and more confidence.

FAQ

What is Parent Coaching and who might benefit from it?

This type of coaching is for parents of children and individuals who have an existing ADHD diagnosis, struggle with executive functioning, or experience challenges academically.

When a child is struggling to manage their day-to-day, especially when they also have a complex profile, it can be challenging for parents to know how to best support them. Seeking information through a formal assessment can be a great start to understanding your child’s capabilities, but that sometimes leaves parents feeling overwhelmed and confused on next steps.

Coaching is intended to introduce strategies and tools so parents can feel more confident guiding their children through school and everyday living.

What is the cost?

The hourly rate of this service is $200.00.

What types of insights can I expect from these sessions?

During your session, the Coach will work with you to develop personalized goals. These can look like some of the following:

Understanding your child and the scope of their needs
Developing effective communication techniques
Using tools and strategies to build confidence for both you and your child
Building action plans
Setting effective boundaries and building habits that are sustainable

Once the goals are set, you will spend time building the relevant strategies and skills. You will gain better understanding of yourself as a parent and your child, ultimately, creating space for a stronger connection.

How does the booking process work?

If you are still in the exploration stage of this service, we can book a 15-minute consultation with the coach to see if it would be a good fit for your needs.

When you are ready to begin coaching, you will be booked into a 30 minute to 1-hour session with the coach. Subsequent sessions can be scheduled as they are needed.

How does Parent Coaching differ from ADHD & Executive Functioning Coaching?

ADHD & Executive Functioning Coaching is an ongoing service, directly with the individual or student, that provides tangible strategies and tools for managing academic-based tasks.

Parent Coaching is directed to the parents of these individuals, developing skills and tools for how to best support their child.
