Allison Freeman
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHCA
As a parenting coach and therapist specializing in supporting families with intense or high-energy children, my approach is rooted in understanding and empowering both parents and children. In our sessions, I create a collaborative and non-judgmental space where parents can explore effective strategies for nurturing their child's unique temperament.
Together, we work to identify the strengths and challenges of intense children, recognizing that their energy and enthusiasm can be channeled into positive outlets. I provide guidance on fostering a supportive home environment that encourages self-expression, emotional regulation, and effective communication.
My focus is on equipping parents with practical tools to navigate the intensity, including setting clear boundaries, implementing consistent routines, and promoting healthy outlets for energy. We discuss effective communication techniques that foster understanding and connection between parents and their intense children.
Throughout the coaching process, I aim to empower parents to embrace and celebrate their child's intensity while finding strategies to manage challenging behaviors. By fostering a harmonious and supportive family dynamic, the goal is to create an environment where both parents and intense children can thrive and build strong, positive relationships.
