Is This the Right Support?

Parent Coaching May Be a Good Fit If...

You are a parent looking for clear guidance on how to respond to your child's behavior and support them day to day.

You feel stuck and aren't sure how to respond to your child's behavior.

Daily routines such as getting dressed, bedtime, mealtimes, or homework have become a struggle.

Your child is having frequent meltdowns, outbursts, or challenging behavior.

You want a clear, individualized plan that fits your family's values and parenting style.

You want to better understand why behaviors are happening and how to respond effectively.

You want to feel more confident supporting your child's growth and well-being.

A Collaborative, Judgment-Free Approach

Gentle Roots offers warm, family-centered support led by a board-certified behavior analyst. Coaching is informed by parent management training and the science of behavior, then tailored to your child's strengths, your family's routines, and the goals that matter most to you.

Together, we'll build research-informed strategies that work in real life—not just during a session.

What Parent Coaching Can Support

Parent coaching is a collaborative process where caregivers learn to understand behavior, build new skills, and create smoother daily routines. Sessions focus on evidence-based strategies you can begin using right away.

We can meet in person or virtually to model skills, coach through routines, and problem-solve together.

Common focus areas include:

Home routines, including transitions, homework, chores, bedtime, and mealtimes
Toilet learning
Supporting communication
Social skills and social-emotional learning
Sibling conflicts and family relationships
Executive functioning skills, such as planning, organization, and getting started

That means your clinician is qualified to:

Analyze behavior patterns
Develop effective, individualized strategies
Teach skills in a supportive and ethical way
Coach caregivers through evidence-based approaches

Your services are led by a clinician with specialized training in autism, early childhood, communication support (including AAC), and family-centered behavior interventions.

What's Included

A structured, supportive approach to help your family see real progress.

1

Assessment

Coaching begins with a collaborative conversation to understand your child's strengths, needs, daily routines, and current challenges.

This may include a short video review or observation to see natural interactions and the context of behaviors. This step builds the foundation for everything that follows.

2

Custom Behavior Strategies

You receive a customized behavior plan with strategies tailored to your goals, paired with visual supports like routines, first/then boards, and reinforcement tools.

Everything is created with your routines, values, and child's needs in mind.

3

Weekly Coaching Sessions

Most families begin with weekly sessions over 6–8 weeks, helping you implement strategies step-by-step, troubleshoot challenges, and celebrate progress along the way.

Ongoing support is available whenever your family needs continued guidance or help with a new challenge.
