Parent Coaching
with Christine Moers
1) Once you express a desire to enter into parent coaching with me, we will work
together to schedule a time. You will decide if you prefer a half hour or full hour
session. If you choose a half hour session, and then find yourself needing an entire
hour, it may be extended mid-call and the extra payment made after the session is
over. I plan for this so that you have that flexibility. Sometimes you don’t know
exactly what you need until you’re in the session!
2) A PayPal invoice will be sent to you for the amount of your coaching session.
Payment of this invoice secures your appointment with me. Our session may not
begin until this payment is complete.
3) Before our scheduled session, I will ask you to send me an email covering the
following topics:
Background information on your family, behaviors you are parenting, resources
you have read/see/attended and how they did or did not help, therapeutic
interventions you are using (or would like to use, but are having a hard time
making it work!), your current struggles, goals you have, etc. I prefer a very
detailed email so that we can hit the ground running as soon as we begin our
time together!
4) I will not contact you for a follow-up session. I prefer you have total control over
how much and how often you utilize my coaching. People who are parenting trauma
have enough stress in their lives and are typically struggling financially as they try to
keep their head above water. You will receive zero guilt or pressure from me to
schedule more time. If you never choose my coaching again - great. If you want a
session every week - great. I’m fine with what helps YOU.
