Coaching and parenting support
What is parenting coaching?
Parental coaching sessions are designed to help parents maintain good family harmony. To this end, our branches offer several 60-minute meetings between parents and a neuropsychologist.
The first step is to help parents identify the most problematic situations, and provide them with concrete tools to deal with them effectively.
As the dynamics vary from one family to the next, the course and number of sessions are not defined in advance. We can therefore offer you a personalized follow-up based on the changes made within the family from one session to the next.
Why use our parenting coaching and support services?
The role of parent is not always an easy one. In addition to the constraints of daily life, we have to find quality time to invest with our young people, while being able to set limits when necessary.
For some parents, the task becomes even more difficult when faced with children who oppose their requests, argue incessantly, lack respect, shout at the slightest annoyance...
For these parents, the family environment can become a place of tension and stress, leading to marital conflict. In this context, it can be reassuring to take stock of the situation with a professional, who can then suggest concrete ways of making the family nest a comforting and reassuring place.

What's the difference between a parenting coach and a psychologist?
A parenting coach focuses on the practical aspects of parenting and family management. He or she offers concrete advice on solving everyday problems, such as children's behavior or communication within the family.
Its approach is generally focused on short-term goals and does not address psychological disorders.
As for the professional, he or she is trained to diagnose and treat psychological disorders such as anxiety or depression.
To do this, he uses therapeutic techniques to help resolve deeper, often long-term, problems. Also, during the sessions, he will address the emotional and mental aspects in greater depth than the parenting coach.
