What is Coaching
The individual receiving coaching is referred to as the client. Occasionally the term coaching may be applied to an informal relationship between one individual who has greater experience and expertise than another or offers advice and guidance as the other goes through a learning process. This form of coaching is similar to mentoring or reference to a coach teaching a sport. The coach will help you set goals, evaluate the situation, and help the team find the best choices for a healthier, happier parenting or personal experience and life in general. The structures, models, and methodologies of coaching are numerous and may be designed to facilitate thinking or learning new behavior for personal growth or professional advancement. When coaching is aimed at facilitating psychological or emotional growth it is important to point out that it is different from therapeutic and counseling disciplines, since clients of coaching are not in therapy and a coach is not a licensed therapist. If these services are needed please seek a professional specializing in your area of need or ask your coach for a referral.
The purpose of the coaching is to help one to move forward in whatever way they want to move.

Parent Coaching
Deb coaches families in person in her office who live in Maine and New England. She also coaches by phone or Zoom, which has proven effective, especially from the comfort of your own home. Many clients say that, with their busy lives, phone and Zoom coaching works very well for them and keeps them on track when time is of the essence. They know they have time scheduled to focus on parenting challenges and goals regularly from the comfort of their own home.
Parenting Coaching with Deb has helped many families acquire the positive parenting tools that they are desperately seeking and have not found in a parenting book. Coaching with a “live” person gives that personal touch not found in a book or on the Internet. Parents from all over the country have found that as they make positive changes in their parenting style, their children’s behavior quickly improves.
Family, Relationship, and Life Coaching
A life coach is almost like a sculptor who can look at you and see the potential for you to achieve all that you desire. Through specific strategies and skills, the coach helps you define yourself and create the life you envision. Coaches help you focus, provide direction, challenge you, support you, motivate you, and celebrate with you.
Life coaches help you create a plan, detail action steps, and hold you accountable for following through. They use skills that include observing, listening deeply, asking empowering questions, challenging, and motivating. Coaches do not counsel or analyze the past. Life coaching is based on the principle that the client has the fundamental ability to determine and achieve their goals. Everything is based on the present and what you want to achieve moving forward.
