Is the Investment Really Worth It?
 
That's a great question, and not only a personal one but a financial one as well. I do recommend that families that begin the program make sure that they have the ability and finances to compleate it. Parenting Plans need transition time and support is vital in that timeframe. It can also help to compare the cost of coaching to the cost of other common expenses.

  • Family night to dinner and a movie: at best 100.00 with popcorn and candy. (Coaching costs less.)
  • Typical car payment: at least $300/month (Coaching costs less.)
  • Typical overnight summer camp: $500/week (Coaching costs less.)
  • Typical family vacation: $3,000/year (Coaching costs a lot less because most people coach for only a few months, so they never rack up the expense equivalent to even one family vacation, yet they gain a whole new approach to peaceful family dynamics.)
Is the investment really worth it? Only you can decide. What is it worth to you? Or looking at it another way, what is it costing you to not hire a parenting coach?

     The initial session is approximately a 2hr. session where I learn about your unique situation, issues, and concerns; as well as meet the family. At this session we observe family interactions to understand where the household can use better performance.

Plan transition sessions cover outlining the plan, highlighting what it will do and putting the plan to work.

    

      Transition sessions also help parents and children become accustomed to the plan during the transition from chaos to calm. This is often the most difficult part of the plan and when families need the most support.

 

     Once the program is complete often we will meet for a final follow-up session, When the family feels confident that they have the parenting plan working properly and they no longer need in home support. This follow up session will allow parents to address any issues that may be arising or simply as a refresher for the course.

 

     Session fees can be paid by cash, check, or money order in person. They may be paid via credit card through the pay pal system via our website.

  • Appointment cancellations must be made within 24 hours of the next session or you will be billed for the session.
