FAQs

1. Who do you work with?

I work with parents who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to support their child or teen at home. Most are trying hard, but things still feel confusing or inconsistent day to day. We slow things down, make sense of what is happening, and build supports that actually work in real life.

2. Do you work with parents of teens with ADHD and neurodivergence?

Yes. Most of my work is with parents navigating ADHD-related challenges in teens and young adults. When I use the word neurodivergent, I’m generally referring to ADHD-style patterns that affect attention, regulation, motivation, and daily functioning in family life.

3. What happens in coaching sessions?

We look at what is actually happening in your day-to-day life and break it down into understandable patterns. Each session includes insight, practical strategies, and next steps you can realistically use right away. You are not left with ideas, you are left with direction.

4. Can coaching help my child’s ADHD or fix their behavior?

Coaching does not “fix” ADHD. What it does is help you understand what is driving the behavior so you can respond in a way that reduces conflict and increases connection. When the system around your child changes, the experience for everyone changes.

5. Will my home actually feel different, or is this just insight and conversation?

Insight is only the starting point. The goal is real-life change with less tension, clearer communication, and fewer repeated cycles. We focus on what you can actually do differently so things feel more manageable over time.

6. What is the difference between coaching and therapy?

Coaching is forward-focused and practical. We work with what is happening now and what to do next. Therapy is often focused on healing past trauma or clinical treatment. Coaching can complement therapy, but it is not a substitute for it.

7. How long does it take to see change?

Some people feel relief early in the process just from understanding what is going on. More sustainable change builds over weeks as new patterns and supports are put in place. Everyone moves at a different pace, depending on their situation and consistency.
