PARENT COACHING PROGRAMS & RATES

Parent Coaching with Kay Kimball Gruder reduces family stress and provides you with strategies to help your student as he or she navigates the twists and turns of the teen through college years.

It is natural to want to ensure your child's success. At the same time, the teen and college years are developmentally important for your child to take increased responsibility for decisions, interactions, goals and planning for the future -- which often means that your student will falter and make mistakes along the way.

Do you ever feel like you want to help your son or daughter, but you just don't know how?

Do you ever find yourself getting too involved and then kicking yourself afterward?

Do you wonder what's really going on?

Do you desire more strategies and tools to assist you in your parenting?

Do you want a greater understanding of the resources available to your son or daughter at their college?

Choose a parent coaching program and provide yourself with time to reflect on your parenting strengths and to develop strategies to effectively support your son or daughter in the teen and college years.

I offer an initial call, at no cost, to learn about your concerns with your child or children. I like to first talk with prospective clients about their desired outcomes, and at the same time you can get a feel for my skills, expertise and parent coaching approach. There are 4 parent coaching programs from which you can choose. All the options consist of private telephone coaching sessions and are scheduled at your convenience and include an email summary of the coaching conversation and recommended action steps.

Parent Coaching provides you with:

new ways to address challenges;
enhanced knowledge of resources;
time to identify goals and strategies in parenting your son or daughter;
an understanding of your child's development and growth;
opportunities to reinforce what is already working;
support through transitions;
dedicated time to think in partnership with an experienced coaching professional.
