Christian Holmes
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Having worked for a number for years as a school counselor and youth pastor I understand the unique challenges kids/teens face as well as what parents go through trying to help them. Every child is unique and needs an approach that is tailored uniquely to them and the family. In our work together, I help clients cultivate not only practical skills but identity level understandings that allow kids/teens to increase in confidence and self-esteem, conflict management, and their ability to process traumatic events (bullying, divorce, etc). Contact me for more information.

Child or Adolescent Issues
Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Childhood and adolescence can be a confusing and overwhelming time for many, and it can be full of transitions, competing stressors, and uncertainty regarding who they are or where they belong. In our sessions, I strive to co-create a safe space where they can talk through the things that are most on their mind. By following their pace and providing support and guidance along the way, we can work to lessen the overwhelming impact of emotions, untangle confusing and painful beliefs, and find ways to navigate the situations in which they feel stuck.

Mojdeh Motamedi
Psychologist, PhD
As a child clinical psychologist, all my training has taken a developmental focus. This includes understanding how things develop from being a young child to becoming an adult. A key approach to take with working with this age range that I emphasize is appropriately customizing therapy to their developmental level and working with the family, school and other factors in the youth's environment to support them. I also enjoy making therapy fun and incorporating play, games, and youth's interest.

Unlocking the Power of GRIT in Children: Fostering Resilience, Independence, and Growth
GRIT, that remarkable ability to persevere in the pursuit of long-term goals even when faced with adversity, is a quality we all desire for our children. It's the cornerstone of resilience, a vital trait that paves the way for independence and success. And at Well Coached Life, we believe in cultivating GRIT in children from the earliest possible age.
GRIT Kids—Who Are They?
GRIT Kids represent a diverse spectrum of young individuals, ranging from the bold to the timid, the curious to the cautious, the serious to the playful. They encompass children between the ages of 2 and 12, each on their unique journey of self-discovery and growth.
The GRIT Kids Mission:
At Well Coached Life, we've established GRIT Kids with a singular purpose: to provide parents and caregivers with the tools and guidance they need to nurture self-awareness in their children at every developmental stage. We understand that simple behavioral management isn't enough to cultivate the internal locus of control required for character development and self-discipline.
Why GRIT Matters:
GRIT is more than just a buzzword; it's a vital life skill. It's about teaching children to persevere, adapt, and transform in the face of challenges. It's about fostering curiosity about their own thoughts and feelings, enabling them to develop insight, evolve, and embrace their unique potential.
Our Expert GRIT Kids Coaches:
Our dedicated team of GRIT Kids Coaches is specially trained to assist you in the intentional upbringing of your child. We provide the guidance and support needed to help your child form a strong self-identity, learn to live with purpose, and grow into their fullest, most capable self.
Join Us on This Journey:
Let's cultivate GRIT in your child as soon as possible. Together, we'll empower them to face life's challenges with resilience, independence, and unwavering determination. With Well Coached Life and GRIT Kids, your child's path to personal growth and self-discovery begins today.
