With an in-house Parent Coach and Family Dynamics Specialist, we help parents explore their behavioral tendencies - such as rescuing - and teach them how to replace those with empowering and supportive actions. We engage in both individual parent coaching work, as well as parental team coaching when there are more than one individual involved. Additionally, if and when everyone in the family is ready and able, we identify how the communication dynamics within individual relationships affect the family dynamic as a whole. We will then help each member of the family create new communication paradigms that help heal old wounds and create new healthy models of interacting that will last for years to come.

Throughout the process of adjusting to a new way of life, it is imperative that both our students and their support system are working with open lines of communication. Using family systems coaching, we help family break unhelpful patterns, notice communication dynamics, and understand how to relate more effectively.
