Parent
If you are exhausted and you know it make an appointment! No really. If you are at you wits end on what to do with your child, let me help you figure it out. With this parent coaching service I will do a comprehensive assessment with you, your child, and one other caregiver in order to create an individualized care plan for your family. Sometimes it takes an outside perspective to help you see your child more clearly and for them to understand you better. All children are welcome for this package. I do specialize in children with Autism and behavioral challenges but children who are defiant or having risky behaviors are welcome as well. For this service I will not act as your or your child’s therapist. Instead I will help translate and transform your relationship into a more enjoyable and enriching one. Since each family is different the number of sessions is variable and will be communicated after the initial assessment. All fees are to be paid in cash as this service is not covered by insurance. Payment plans are available.
