Parent Support, Co-Parenting & Family Mediation Services
Parenting doesn’t come with a roadmap, and every child is different.
You can know your child incredibly well and still reach a point where you’re not sure what they need from you anymore. The more you push, the more they pull away. A simple request turns into an argument. You want to protect them, but you also know they need room to make mistakes and become more independent.
Parent coaching gives you a place to step outside of the immediate situation, understand what may be driving the patterns you’re seeing, and think more clearly about how to respond.
We offer in-person parent coaching in Los Angeles, conveniently located for families in Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Westwood, Brentwood, Bel Air, and surrounding communities. We also offer virtual parent coaching throughout California.
What We Help Parents Navigate
Parent coaching can be helpful when you’re unsure how to respond, the same dynamics keep repeating, or what worked before doesn’t seem to work anymore.
Our therapists specialize in helping parents navigate the challenges that often come with adolescence, young adulthood, and increasing independence, including:
Frequent conflict, power struggles, or shutting down
Anxiety, withdrawal, irritability, or intense emotions
Boundaries, expectations, and consequences
School refusal, motivation, or executive functioning challenges
Changes in your relationship with your child
Increasing independence and changing family roles
Different parenting approaches or co-parenting challenges
Supporting a child who is struggling or already in therapy
What Parent Coaching Looks Like
Parent coaching isn’t about finding the “perfect” way to parent. It’s about understanding your child, your relationship, and what happens between you when things get difficult.
We look at what may be underneath the behavior, how you and your child respond to one another, and what keeps pulling you back into the same dynamic.
From there, we get specific about what could change. That might mean staying consistent through pushback, approaching a conversation differently, setting a clearer boundary, stepping out of a power struggle, or knowing when to give your child more room.
The goal is to help you feel clearer about what your child needs from you and more confident in how you respond.
Parent Coaching Alongside Therapy
Parent coaching can be helpful whether or not your child is in therapy. Some parents come to us because of something happening at home, while others use parent coaching alongside their child’s individual or family therapy.
When a teen is in individual therapy, parents often have their own questions about how to respond at home, when to step in, when to give more space, or how to handle dynamics that keep coming up. Parent coaching gives parents a place to work through those questions while allowing the teen’s therapy to remain a space that feels like their own.
Co-Parenting Support
Co-parenting can be challenging, especially when communication has become difficult or parenting styles don't always align. Parent coaching helps parents move away from ongoing conflict and toward a more consistent, collaborative approach that supports their child's well-being.
Whether you're navigating separation, divorce, blended families, or everyday disagreements, the focus is on helping your child feel secure while improving communication, setting clear expectations, and reducing the stress that conflict can place on the family.
You Don't Have to Figure It Out Alone
When you're in the middle of a difficult dynamic, it can be hard to know what needs to change. We'll help you better understand what's happening, identify what may need to shift, and find an approach that fits your child and your family.
