6. Is Coaching like therapy?
No, Parent Coaching is not like therapy, nor is it intended to replace therapy. You and your Coach can discuss whether you or anyone else in your family would benefit from finding a therapist in your location. Parent Coaches are not therapists who would ask about your past, nor do they prescribe medicine. Instead, they provide support and guidance, along with parenting tips and techniques in order to help you set goals and objectives for parenting. Once objectives and goals are set, Parent Coaches can help you implement plans to carry out your objectives and help you reach the goals you have set.

FamilyIQ Parent Coaching costs $85.00 per 50-minute session. In contrast, visiting a face-to-face therapist can average from $90 to $140 for a 50-minute session. Coaching Packages offered give preferred scheduling benefits when additional time is purchased as a package.
