About Parent Coaching

Navigating the changing shape of parent-child relationships at every age and stage can feel like trying to fit shifting puzzle pieces. Led by developmental psychologist and therapist Dr. Rachel Manes, our Parent Coaching program is designed to help you stay grounded through these transitions -while remaining connected to your child and your family’s evolving story.

While Dr. Manes oversees and guides the program, the work is delivered by our team of expert therapists who offer individualized coaching for your family’s unique rhythms. Together, you’ll gain:

• A deeper understanding of your child’s behavior and mindset through a developmental lens.

• Practical tools to strengthen communication, set healthy boundaries, and model emotional regulation.

• Support through life’s twists: family growth, grief, illness, shifts in routine, and more.

• Thoughtful guidance tailored to your family’s everyday structure—morning and bedtime routines, caregiver changes, executive functioning differences, and more.

We deliver this support through a caring, step-by-step process that honors your priorities and pace. You’ll be held accountable with compassion, and you’ll make visible progress toward greater resilience and connection. Ultimately, you’ll learn how to become not just a parent who reacts—but a thoughtful collaborator in your child’s growth and a stronger anchor for your entire family.

We can support you in areas such as:

• Understanding Your Child’s Behavior – Respond to tantrums, defiance, or withdrawal with developmentally informed strategies.

• Setting Healthy Boundaries – Create clear, consistent limits while keeping connection and warmth.

• Positive Discipline – Replace power struggles with evidence-based tools that build responsibility and respect.

• Strengthening Communication – Improve how you and your child talk, listen, and understand each other.

• Managing Parental Stress – Learn techniques to care for yourself so you can parent from calm and intention.

• Navigating Co-Parenting – Work collaboratively with a partner, ex, or blended family system for your child’s best interest.

• Supporting Emotional Regulation – Help your child manage big feelings through modeling and guided practice.

• Balancing Screen Time – Set healthy, age-appropriate technology habits aligned with your family’s values.

• Fostering Confidence & Resilience – Encourage self-esteem, independence, and problem-solving skills.

• Tailored Guidance for Unique Situations – Support for single parents, neurodivergent children, grief, divorce, or other transitions.
