Kid Coaching

I specialize in working with students needing to discover the positives of who they are, in spite of challenges in school (by LD, ADD, uniqueness, intelligence etc.). Most kids when asked, “What good is there in ADD?” will reply “nothing!” Instead they are full of self-doubt, recrimination and negative talk. They become beaten down by trying to fit in a restrictive paradigm. These kids, full of many wonderful qualities and talents, need a new viewpoint.

Our coaching relationship focuses on bringing it all out in the open. We talk about what is really going on in their minds. Coaching kids has an element of guidance to it that is rarely present in adult coaching. I’ll present different options, ideas, and viewpoints so that your child has an EXPANDED awareness. When a student can articulate HOW they function best they are again in control of their loves. This builds confidence and helps students take action to allow them to be their true great selves.
