Parenting

ADHD Parent Coaching Program

Parenting isn’t easy especially when your child has attention, behavioral, or learning issues. At Positive Kids, we believe in our parents and we believe their intentions are always loving. However, when parents are misinformed about ADHD and how children are adversely affected by the various challenges it presents, they inadvertently contribute to some of the stressors in their caring attempt to mould and shape their child’s motivations and behaviors. At Positive Kids, we don’t judge, we empathize and understand. Our parenting Coaching program will help parents take control of their home and become empowered parents. In particular we will support parents to:

• Help their child stay on Task and Improve their Behavior
• Help their child with Homework
• Discipline and setup up reward systems
• Advocate for their child in the School System
• Deal with the impact of ADHD on their marriage
• Deal with the impact of ADHD on sibling relationships
• Set up effective bedtime Routine and sleep hygiene
• Become educated about Comorbid Symptoms e.g., Anxiety, depression
• Better understand oppositional Defiance disorder (ODD) and Conduct Disorder (CD) and its relationship to ADHD
• Be better informed on issues regarding medication
• Seek out Therapy and Skills programs
• Source Executive Functioning Professionals
• And so Much more

ADHD is a whole-family issue and we recognize it at such. That is why we’ve incorporated this Parenting component into our holistic ADHD model. You owe it to your family to understand what is going on and try to achieve a balance and calm within your family.
