About Louellen

Hi, Im Louellen,

As a Certified Parent Coach, I'm honored to work with parents, co-parents and grandparents to help create the peace, calm, and connection that we all desire with our children. I believe that the best way to raise healthy, happy children is to support and empower parents. I was a parent that needed support too. If you are struggling or your child is struggling, please know there is hope. You are not alone. Nothing is broken. You just may need some new tools. Along with being a Certified Parent Coach, I'm a Physical Therapist. I've been working with children and families for over 30 years. When I'm not working, you can find me outdoors with my favorite people; my husband my two sons and our sweet pup. Embrace Parenting.

    JS

  • “I am amazed at how my perspective on parenting has changed. Prior to the course, I felt like my relationships with my children were becoming more and more disconnected. As I use the new tools I have learned, I see and feel a positive and more peaceful change in my home.”

    LS

  • "I am forever grateful for our coach Louellen, who guided us through this course, without judgement and complete support; who encouraged and reassured us through our limiting beliefs (about ourselves and children) that were a barrier to our ability to parent peacefully, and who believed in us, before we were confident enough to believe in ourselves."

FAQs

What types of issues can you help me with as a parent coach?

As a parent coach, I work with parents to address a wide range of issues related to raising teenage boys. Some common concerns include communication problems, behavior issues, academic struggles, social difficulties, and emotional challenges and excess screen use.

How do you work with parents to improve communication with their teenage boys?

I work with parents to improve communication with their teenage boys by helping them develop active listening skills, providing tips for effective communication, and teaching parents how to identify and respond to their child's needs. We may also work on improving nonverbal communication, managing conflict, and setting clear boundaries and expectations.

How do you approach working with parents who have different parenting styles?

As a parent coach, I respect and value the unique parenting styles of each family I work with. I take a collaborative approach, working with parents to identify common goals and find strategies that work for both parents and their teenage sons. I also provide education on different parenting styles and help parents identify and understand their own style and how it impacts their child's behavior.

How does parent coaching differ from traditional therapy?

Parent coaching differs from traditional therapy in that it is focused on developing practical skills and strategies for improving parenting and family dynamics. While traditional therapy may explore deeper emotional issues, parent coaching is more action-oriented and goal-focused, with an emphasis on providing tangible tools and techniques for creating positive change.

Can parent coaching help me with specific challenges my teenage son is facing, such as behavior problems or academic struggles?

Yes, parent coaching can help parents address specific challenges their teenage sons may be facing. We will work together to develop effective strategies and solutions for managing behavior problems, improving academic performance, and promoting positive growth and development.

How do you ensure confidentiality and privacy in parent coaching sessions?

Confidentiality and privacy are of utmost importance in parent coaching sessions. I maintain strict confidentiality and do not share any information about our sessions or the family with anyone outside of the coaching relationship, except in cases where there is a safety concern or legal obligation to do so. Additionally, all communication between myself and the family is kept secure and private, and I take measures to ensure that any online communication or data storage is encrypted and secure.
