1:1 PARENT COACHING
You don’t have to figure this out alone. 1:1 coaching takes a deeper dive into your questions and concerns. The combination of completing some questionnaires and your initial intake call, Michelle will create a document for you to help you understand where your child is doing well, where they are struggling and a comprehensive set of treatment goals. There is a minimum of 4 sessions to work with Michelle, to give you the accountability and coaching to set you up for success.
TOGETHER AS A TEAM: PARENTING COURSES
Michelle has created courses to fit your specific needs as caregivers. Check out her variety of courses on strong-willed children, parenting a child with special needs, ADHD, and more!
