Parent-Child Relationship Coaching
for Adults & Children

This topic is more of an aspect of the issue being approached as a whole. The relationship between a parent and a child isn’t stand-alone. With another parent, separated, divorced or not biological then there is probably a stone unturned here that requires talking about as a whole and not just about two individuals when there are relationship difficulties. This is also something that is dealt with and observed while working together.

This is just part of the aspect of whole parent child relationship coaching. Being alone with the child during bonding experiences one can approach the child in a different way than the parent. I can discuss things that the child might feel comfortable discussing with me but not the parent. Part of the bonding adventure is to create a situation where the child feels ‘on top’ of the parent. To be more knowledgeable and experienced than the parent. See how the child reacts to their own frustration when the parent is ‘incompetent’. Feelings of autonomy, belonging, and independence are some of the most effective feelings that motivate your children and can also through awareness make them see the parent’s perspective.

Should be covered in school more than certain other topics. Even adults have poor communication skills which can be seen from board meetings to individual assignments that are lost in translation and done differently than expected. As children grow and new things affect them like puberty and parents become older and more ‘tired’ and less energetic, making communication a big issue. Sometimes parents make something bigger than it is because our minds are elsewhere and that becomes a catalyst for communication issues; parents lose their cool, get frustrated or angry. Stop acting rationally, productively, and constructively.

Bonding adventures put parent/child under a certain level of pressure. By Spending alone time with the child after something happened, it creates an outlet for the child to share things they might not do while having big emotions with the parent around. We go through where issues stem from. Looking at other means of approaching a situation that is comfortable, easy and acceptable for parent and child.

This is the main aspect of what I do. I bring the adult and child closer together The world is moving ever so faster and having ‘less time’. Everyone is doing everything and nothing at the same time, cutting one of the most valuable moments out of their lives. Spending less time with their children, sending them to various afterschool activities to get them ‘busy’ and not be bored. It’s actually more beneficial to be bored but that’s for another story. Parents mention difficulties with their children. When I get to see them in live interaction, without a set controlled environment of a room where there is no outside force to affect the behavior, issues can be approached or targeted more directly. Especially when discussing with the parents a specific moment that we were all part of and witnessed together. We find out the background behind a behavior or action that can be worked on to ‘level-up’ the relationship.
