Parenting Coaching
Parent Support and Coaching
In our stress- and parent-guilt–filled world, it can be so helpful to take time to reset and recalibrate your parenting approach to align with your values as a family. For many caregivers in Roanoke, VA, meeting with a parenting coach provides space to reflect, breathe, and regain confidence in supporting a child with big feelings or challenging behaviors.
Using individualized coaching or modalities like Child-Parent Relationship Therapy (CPRT), I meet with parents without their children present to provide support, effective strategies to implement at home, and targeted problem solving. Parent coaching is especially helpful when families are navigating tantrums, emotional overload, sibling conflict, or ongoing behavior struggles.
Co-Parenting Counseling
Whatever the makeup of your family system, it can be difficult to align parenting approaches with your partner or co-parent. We all come from different upbringings and bring our own experiences to the table, and together we can use that information to create a blueprint that you and your co-parent can work from in tandem.
Children thrive in consistent, predictable environments, and co-parenting effectively is one of the best ways to maintain your child’s sense of safety and stability. Many families in Roanoke and the greater Southwest Virginia area seek co-parenting counseling when they want to strengthen communication, reduce conflict, or develop shared goals for their child’s emotional and behavioral well-being.
