What is family coaching?
Family coaching can help you:
Family coaching for mental health is a type of coaching that focuses on helping parents or partners develop the skills and strategies they need to support their adolescent or adult child's mental health and well-being. Parent coaches work with parents to identify challenges and develop a plan for addressing those challenges in a supportive and effective manner. This type of coaching can be beneficial for parents of children with a range of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and others.
