Putting Parents at the Center of Support: The Value of ADHD Parent Coaching
Description
Too often, the focus of ADHD support centers on helping children manage schoolwork and behavior while overlooking the central role that parents play in a child’s success. This session introduces the growing field of ADHD Parent Coaching and explores how it supports the child by first supporting the parent. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of the unique executive function and emotional regulation challenges families face and how parent-focused coaching shifts the dynamic from daily power struggles to collaborative problem-solving. Through real-life examples and evidence-based insights, we’ll examine how helping parents reframe their expectations, build their own emotional regulation skills, and set up practical systems at home can dramatically change outcomes for the entire family. ADHD Parent Coaching does not replace therapy or academic support—it bridges the gap by empowering parents to support their children more effectively and compassionately. This presentation is ideal for ADHD coaches, therapists, educators, and parents who want to learn how to better guide families through the day-to-day challenges of raising children with ADHD. Participants will leave with a clear sense of what ADHD Parent Coaching is, why it works, and how it can complement existing support services.
