Parent Coaching
When you are raising a unique child who has both incredible potential and obstacles to reach that potential, parenting can be a challenging and lonely journey. Your child perhaps has trouble making social connections, regulating emotions, navigating through school or handling difficult situations. They may already have a suspected or confirmed diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, Social Communication Difficulties, or Twice Exceptional profile. You have probably tried everything including bribes, consequences, and nagging, but see no difference and are stuck in a cycle of frustration and helplessness. The good news is that there is a path that will allow your child to thrive but the usual parenting approaches simply don’t work with these complex children. Their brain is uniquely wired and they need to be parented differently.
“You don’t fix your child. You create the conditions for them to rise.”

Who can benefit from it?

Educators, teachers, psychoeducators, social workers, or any other professionals working with neurodiverse children, adolescents, or adults (ASD, ADHD, social communication difficulties, anxiety, twice exceptional).
​
Whether you are fresh out of school or already a seasoned professional don’t feel bad if you are not sure what to do with these awesome and complex atypical kids or older individuals. It’s all normal since chances are that your training did not prepare you for that. Traditional approaches gave you the tools to work with mostly neurologically typical kids but today 1 in 5 children is considered atypical or as we also call it “differently wired”. As you already know since you are reading this, they do not respond to traditional approaches. The key to helping them is to understand that they are unique and they need an individually tailored approach. No one-size-fits-all magic solution.
