Who Can Benefit from Parent Coaching?

Parent coaching works well for parents who need a little extra support, whether your child has been diagnosed with autism, ADHD, or another neurodevelopmental condition, or if they simply face challenges in their behavior, learning, or social interactions. Our coaching helps parents understand their child’s needs and find effective strategies to foster positive growth at home.

If you’ve ever found yourself struggling to manage your child’s behaviors, feeling uncertain about how to respond in challenging moments, or wondering how to support your child’s emotional needs, parent coaching can help. We’ll work together to address these concerns, and you’ll gain insights and tools tailored to your family’s unique situation.

What to Expect

Parent coaching at TRAIN is flexible and personalized. Whether you prefer weekly or bi-weekly sessions, or a more intensive short-term series, we’ll design a plan that fits your schedule and goals. Coaching sessions take place via telehealth, making it easy to access support from the comfort of your own home.

During our sessions, we’ll:

• Explore your specific concerns and goals for your child

• Discuss practical strategies to address challenges at home

• Develop a personalized action plan for you to implement

• Follow up to review progress and adjust strategies as needed

Our goal is to empower you with the knowledge and confidence to help your child thrive.

Our Approach

At TRAIN, parent coaching is rooted in evidence-based practices that address the full spectrum of your child’s development. We draw from the following approaches to create a customized experience for your family:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Understand and reshape thought patterns that impact your child’s behaviors, while learning practical techniques for managing challenging situations.

• Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT): Improve your relationship with your child and learn to guide their behavior in positive ways using play-based techniques and real-time coaching.

• DIR/Floortime: Engage with your child through their natural interests, helping to strengthen emotional connections and support their developmental progress through meaningful interactions.

• Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP): Understand how your child’s early experiences, including trauma, may be influencing their current behavior, and learn to foster a sense of safety and trust within your family.

• Incredible Years: Gain practical strategies for managing behavior, fostering emotional regulation, and creating a supportive home environment using proven parenting techniques.

Each session is tailored to your family’s needs and focuses on helping you build confidence in supporting your child’s growth, both emotionally and developmentally.
