Parent/Caregiver Coaching Services
A child’s behavior can give us so much good information about what he needs. Parent coaching services begin by working with the parents, caregivers or adults who have the child’s best interests at heart, allowing us to make solid, child-centered recommendations for improving participation or function.
Parent coaching is an adult learning strategy where a plan is collaboratively developed that considers the family’s values and lifestyle. Parents learn problem-solving skills and can create positive environments for themselves and their children to participate in valued activities. In this model, the OT offers suggestions, guidance and reflections to empower parents to make changes which will ultimately support their children.
Who would benefit from these services?
Parents or caregivers who have their child on a waitlist for outpatient occupational therapy
Parents or caregivers who want to learn strategies for difficulties at home
Parents or caregivers who seek to understand the why behind a behavior or barrier to their child’s development
Pricing for coaching services: $75/hour.
