PARENT COACHING

GOAL-DRIVEN SUPPORT FOR PARENTS

We offer focused, supportive guidance to help parents feel confident and capable. Together, we’ll explore practical strategies for everyday parenting challenges and ways to support your child’s emotional and mental well-being.

We’re not here to provide endless advice without direction. As a short-term solution, we’re here to help you see real progress and actionable results in a timely manner.

STRUGGLING WITH PARENTHOOD? YOU’RE NOT ALONE

Parenting can be unpredictable, and every child develops and learns in their own way. According to the CDC, nearly 1 in 5 children were diagnosed with a mental, emotional, or behavioral health condition in 2021. Whatever challenges your family may be facing, you are not alone, and we’re here to help.

Feeling overwhelmed is normal: Many parents become frustrated or exhausted when managing their child’s behavior. You are not alone in this experience.
Life can be unpredictable: Tricky situations such as separation or divorce, adoption, adolescence, or other unexpected challenges can make parenting even more difficult.
Balancing responsibilities is hard: Juggling work, family, and your child’s needs can feel stressful and exhausting, no matter your experience or resources.

HOW PARENT COACHING CAN HELP

Parent coaching provides guidance and strategies to help families navigate challenges with confidence and clarity. Our interventions target the following key areas:

Supporting Mental & Behavioral Health

Parent coaching helps families find calm and confidence when children face emotional or behavioral challenges that feel overwhelming.

Navigating Life Transitions

When life shifts suddenly, children can struggle to adjust—we support families in finding stability and reassurance during these changes. This could include:

Tackling Everyday Parenting Challenges

Everyday parenting can feel overwhelming—coaching helps you handle the small and big challenges.

HOW IT WORKS

There’s no one-size-fits-all for parent coaching—each plan is tailored to meet your family’s unique needs and goals, providing guidance, support, and practical strategies.

Personalized Sessions with a Therapist

Work one-on-one with a clinician to discuss challenges, set goals, and practice new parenting strategies. Whether it’s just you or you and your co-parent, you’ll develop approaches tailored to your family, practice skills in real-life situations, and gain deeper insight into your child’s emotional needs.

Targeted Interventions to Support Your Progress

Receive practical tools and strategies designed for your family’s specific situations. Your coach provides guidance for challenges such as managing meltdowns, improving communication, setting healthy boundaries, and supporting emotional regulation.

Ongoing Reassessment to Track Development

Parenting is a dynamic process. Your coach regularly evaluates progress, celebrates successes, and identifies areas where adjustments are needed. This ensures that your plan remains effective as your child grows and as family circumstances change.

Take-Home Resources to Reinforce Learning at Home

Get worksheets, guides, and exercises to continue building skills at home. These may include step-by-step guides, visual aids, journaling prompts, and more, designed to reinforce skills, encourage positive behaviors, and foster a calmer, more connected home environment.

“Adrianna has given me an unbelievable amount of support and guidance since the beginning. I’m so grateful that I have met her and she is always there when I need her! Very thankful for my experience with Adri and Verge!”

Milton client

“Cannot say enough good things about Verge, from getting started to regular appointments the transition was seamless! Especially for women in their 20s-30s and those just starting therapy (and I’m sure others) I would 100% recommend.”

Google Review

“I started therapy sessions at Verge for the first time last year and I can say it has dramatically improved my quality of life. As we all know, life is stressful! I had never before gone to a therapist so had no idea what to expect and was naturally extremely apprehensive to open up to a total stranger about the many stressful topics I had been neglecting for a very long time. Thankfully, the therapists I have had the opportunity to speak with at Verge made me feel comfortable from the start, encouraging me to go at my own pace and creating conversation that lead to deeper exploration of each topic. I am very grateful to Verge and recommend it to anyone who may be suffering in silence or considering starting therapy. It will make a difference!”

33 y/o Telehealth client

“I feel incredibly fortunate to have discovered Verge Therapy at the beginning of my therapy journey. Right from my very first session, I instantly connected with Chelsey, and as time has gone by, the experience has only improved. Three years have passed since I started seeing Chelsey, and I can confidently say that the positive impact of therapy has touched every aspect of my life. Chelsey has equipped me with tools and techniques that have contributed to leading a healthier and more fulfilling life. Her dedication to mental health is shown through her continuous learning and understanding. I really appreciate how she shares her learnings with me and recommends books that she believes will be beneficial for my growth. My progress in therapy is owed to Chelsey and the exceptional support provided by Verge Therapy. They have made a significant difference in my life, and I am immensely grateful for them!”

27 y/o Telehealth client

“I tried therapy twice in college to help navigate grief and stress, but those experiences were not impactful enough to stick with it long-term. It took me nearly eight years to give it another try, and I’m happy I did! Finding the right therapist can be hard, but I lucked out with Verge Therapy. I remember reading about each therapist and being impressed with the various areas of expertise. My experience with Verge Therapy has been so positive that I’ve recommended them to others; I want others to experience the same professional and personalized experience as I have. I talk about my therapy learnings so much that the people closest to me know my therapist’s name; that’s how excited I am about my growth! I’m happy I found my way back to therapy via Verge Therapy; I will definitely stick with it long-term this time! I honestly don’t know how I navigated life without it!”

31 y/o Telehealth client

“I have been seeing Sarah L. at Verge Therapy for at least a month now for anxiety. She is excellent and will listen to everything I have to say even when I ramble on a little! She is always kind, professional, and willing to give me great advice. I feel better every time I meet with her and better dealing with my anxiety. Verge Therapy in Woburn is a beautiful, clean, and welcoming environment and I highly recommend them. Thanks to Sarah and Verge Therapy for all they do!”

Woburn client

“Starting therapy can feel really intimidating which is why I’m grateful I chose Verge Therapy as my provider! I’ve been working with Chelsey for over a year now and deeply appreciate how she tailors her methods and creates a safe environment where I feel comfortable opening up and being vulnerable. I’ve learned more about myself than I ever imagined and feel like I’m able to harness my power more than ever before! Chelsey makes me feel seen and heard while also challenging me to fight the daily thought distortions that have been plaguing me for years. Honestly if I were to change one thing about my therapy experience it would have been to start earlier! I also appreciate the flexibility in being able to do remote sessions, bi-weekly, which fits beautifully into my work schedule.”
