Our powerful coaching model emphasizes the nurturing of the
delicate bond between parent and child through an
attachment-based approach. Parents learn to:
- Establish parenting practices that focus on the child’s underlying emotional dynamics rather than behavior.
- Develop effective strategies to respond to maladaptive behaviors that do not undermine the parent-child relationship.
- Identify and meet the unique needs of their children, creating the right conditions for children to grow into their most authentic selves.
- Create an environment of physical, social, and psychological felt-safety.
- Attune to their child’s feelings and accurately communicate them back to their child, preventing tantrums, reducing anxiety, and building emotional resilience.
- Master the IDEAL Response (Immediate, Direct, Efficient, Active, Leveled at behavior, not child).
- Master Levels of Response (Playful, Structured, Calming, Protective).
- Understand the purpose and function survival-based behavior as well as how to support our children in getting their needs met in more attractive ways.
- Master the use of proactive strategies for behavioral change.
