Parenting can feel harder than you expected.
We live in an information age—but more advice doesn’t always lead to change. Maybe you’ve read the books, listened to the podcasts, and even asked ChatGPT for help.
And yet…
Interactions turn into nagging, repeating yourself, raised voices, and power struggles. Screen time becomes a constant source of tension.
You love your child. You want to feel connected.
But some days, you feel overwhelmed, reactive, or stuck. And sometimes this leads to doubt and uncertainty about the best path.
If you’re raising a neurodivergent child, the intensity can be even greater—requiring more patience, flexibility, and resilience than anyone prepared you for.
You are not alone.
And you are not failing. -
Is Parent Coaching Right for Me?
What changes
Fewer and shorter power struggles and meltdowns
Smoother transitions: mornings, bedtime, screens off
Clear, consistent responses you and your co-parent agree on
Staying calm when your child isn’t
More good moments together, not just fewer bad ones
Why parent coaching works
Kids change fastest when the adults around them change how they respond. You’re with your child far more than any professional could be — so we build the plan around you and your home.How it works
Free 30-minute call. We talk about what’s happening and whether I’m the right fit.
Your plan. In our first session we pick the one or two behaviors that matter most and you leave with a strategy to try that week.
Practice and adjust. Over [4–8] sessions we track what’s changing, troubleshoot what isn’t, and build on what works. Between sessions, you can reach out when you hit a snag.
Raising your child with a partner? We’ll get you both on the same page, which is often where the biggest shifts happen.
The Foundation of My Work
Everything we do is grounded in evidence-informed science, including self-compassion, resilience, communication, and relational science.
Even the former U.S. Surgeon General has highlighted the parental stress crisis. Parenting is meaningful — and deeply demanding. With the right support, it can also feel more connected, intentional, and sustainable.
Parent coaching offers a personalized, action-oriented, supportive space that can transform your experience of parenting.

What is coaching?
Coaching is practical and present-focused: we work on what’s happening now and what to do next. It isn’t therapy and doesn’t replace care from a licensed mental health professional.

“I have really enjoyed my sessions with Dr. Humphreys - I find her to be kind, open-minded, inquisitive and thoughtful.
Dr. Humphreys helped me better understand how to apply coaching principles to daily life. This has in turn helped increase my curiosity about what thoughts are driving my feelings and where I can make small shifts to experience a different outcome - particularly with some personal life challenges. What’s nice is the same concepts apply to almost any aspect of life!! I am so grateful for her time and expertise helping me work a new muscle, one I continue to flex on the regular. I would highly recommend Dr. Humphreys to anyone.” —PD

I was able to reflect and I felt she was truly hearing, and understanding what I was saying.
