Daughter with ADHD

I sought out parent coaching with Amy because I felt frustrated daily and increasingly disconnected with my daughter who has been recently diagnosed with ADHD. I struggled to understand how she was thinking and felt like I didn’t know how to communicate with her effectively. I felt like I was failing her as her parent. After working with Amy, I feel like I understand my daughter much better now. I have so many new tools and resources to pull from. But most importantly, I have a new mindset. I’ve learned to respond differently to challenging situations and to be proactive to create more successful outcomes. I’m more curious and less judgmental. I’ve seen how creating more structure allows for more flexibility. These changes have boosted my daughter’s self-esteem and alleviated much of my tension. I achieved my goal of improving my relationship with my daughter; we truly enjoy our time together and our home is a peaceful one. But I’ve also learned how to both support and empower her and I realize that is ultimately my job as her parent. Parent coaching has been one of the best gifts I’ve given myself – and my daughter.
