FAQs about Parent Coaching
Is Parent Coaching covered under my Health Benefits Plan?
The cost of parent coaching is not covered under your health benefits. Consider it as investment in yourself and your relationship with your teenager.
What is the difference between parent coaching and therapy?
Therapy:
- typically focuses on issues of pathology, unresolved psychological issues of the past, and healing.
- frequently uses diagnoses and can last anywhere from weeks to years.
Parent coaching:
- looks forward, deals in the present, seeks to educate, and does not diagnose. While the past may be discussed, it is addressed in the context of discovering what is blocking the client from moving forward.
- uses tools and the most current research to help you develop the skills you need to parent your teenager.
Will you meet with my teenager or us as a family?
No. Parent coaching is designed to help you become the agent of change for your teenager. A parent coach helps from behind the scenes.
Parenting a teenager or young adult can be a significant challenge, but a happier, healthier, and more respectful relationship is possible.
