family coaching

Working with Rachel has been eye opening and healing in many ways. She really knows her stuff and knows how to guide you to finding out what you need to do to be a successful Parent and Coach to your teens. Firstly, she helped me to understand how I need to respect myself and others as a foundation for all my relationships. Then the chapter on helping my children to become responsible adults by clarifying what I expect from them and making an agreement with them was so clear. Letting the natural consequences of them not fulfilling their portion of the agreement made a lot of sense. I can continue using this method in many applications. And lastly but most importantly she helped me to understand that I need to let God work. I don't have to be able to do everything and be everything for my family. I do my best and let God do the rest. What a great course and a great facilitator! 

You’d be amazed at what you don’t know about yourself and your children…This program is very simple and sensible, yet profound and effective...I would recommend this to other families because it helps focus thoughts and ideas that families share in order to create a more successful relationship with each other. It also brings an outside perspective into the family to find strengths/weaknesses not seen by the family...The Family Coaching Session was a great forum for hearing one another, because everyone felt safe, and all were elevated by the high-minded example set by the coach. It’s so helpful to have a focal point to give direction and clarity of purpose to the family ‘team’ dynamic. Excellent!

I learned to listen more carefully and respectfully. As my son matures into true adulthood, it's not just a matter of dropping whatever I am doing and listening, but it's a matter of listening to him, his process, his current place in his own world and the outside world respecting him…[My son] stated that the coaching experience has made him more comfortable in his own skin and that he no longer worries as much about what others feel about him. He feels more secure…Together with constant prayer, I think that the coaching has been an excellent tool for both our son and for us as parents.

A powerful and simple approach to parenting – very well taught.

Do it! For yourself (the parent) and especially for your teenager.

Thank you! I gained a new perspective on how to respect my children, but more importantly to tell them I do…With my large family, learning how to make agreements with them and giving them the space to succeed was extremely helpful…I cannot thank you enough…You are so easy to talk with, and be honest with. I appreciate your assistance and insight…It truly was an amazing experience that I would absolutely recommend to other parents with difficult teens.
