Parent Coaching for ADHD Children and Teens
Practical support for parents raising children with ADHD. Building understanding, patience, and strategies that reduce daily conflict and overwhelm.
Raising an ADHD Kid Is a Whole Different Game
Nobody gave you a playbook for this. Your child is bright, creative, and full of energy, but the daily battles over homework, mornings, screen time, and meltdowns can leave you completely drained.
You're doing more than you think. Let's build on that.
What Parents Often Tell Me
Morning Chaos
Every morning feels like a negotiation. Getting dressed, eating breakfast, leaving on time. It shouldn't be this hard.
Homework Wars
The fight to sit down, focus, and finish assignments turns every evening into a battle.
Big Emotions
Meltdowns that seem to come out of nowhere, and the guilt you feel afterward no matter how you handled it.
Feeling Alone in It
Other parents don't seem to get it. You wonder if you're doing something wrong. (You're not.)
For Children & Teens with ADHD
Skill-Building That Reduces Daily Conflict
ADHD kids aren’t lazy or oppositional. They’re often dysregulated, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that aren’t working. In therapy, we focus on:
- Emotional regulation
- Frustration tolerance
- Follow-through with school tasks
- Social skills
- Building confidence after repeated correction
Sessions are structured and active, not just talking. We practice skills in real time and coordinate with parents when helpful.
Parent Coaching
Because ADHD Is a Family System Issue
Parent coaching focuses on giving you the tools to reduce power struggles, give effective instructions, respond to emotional escalation, and strengthen your relationship with your child without shame or guilt driving the process. You'll leave sessions with clear, practical strategies, not just validation.
What Parent Coaching Actually Looks Like
This isn't about fixing your kid. It's about understanding how their brain works and building strategies around that, so daily life feels less like a battlefield.
Understand Your Child's Brain
We start by exploring how ADHD shows up for your specific child. Their triggers, their strengths, and what they actually need from you.
Build Practical Strategies
We create simple, concrete tools for the toughest moments — mornings, homework, transitions, meltdowns — that work with your child's wiring.
Practice Skills Together
We practice new tools in session and between visits. You'll get homework that actually works because it's built for your specific situations and your child's needs.
Strengthen the Relationship
When the daily conflict goes down, the connection goes up. We focus on communication and building a relationship based on understanding, not frustration.
What to Expect
Sessions are 50 minutes, online via telehealth. We'll focus on real situations from your week and build strategies you can use immediately. My style is direct, supportive, and judgment-free. Because parenting an ADHD kid is hard enough without someone making you feel bad about it.
