FAQs
Does my child participate in the coaching session?
No, sessions are for adults only. To maximize our time together, please ensure you can focus fully on our conversation.
Is there a minimum or maximum number of coaching sessions?
Sessions are booked individually, allowing you to choose the number that suits your needs, whether it's one session or several.
How often should I book coaching sessions?
For behavior troubleshooting, two or three sessions may suffice. For ongoing guidance, consider monthly or bi-monthly sessions. I’m happy to provide more personalized guidance after learning more about your family in the complimentary consultation.
I’m a certified parent educator, developmental therapist, and Montessori enthusiast. I help families find more confidence, joy, and fulfillment.
