Parenting Coach- Parenting is one of the most difficult and rewarding jobs you will ever have! But when you are trying to parent a child with Oppositional Defiant Disorder, ADHD, Autism or a child with no diagnosis that is particularly challenging it is exhausting!

When you have tools to help you, your home becomes more peaceful and your relationship with your child improves in a very short amount of time.
