Parent coaching for ADHD & high-needs children

Calm parenting starts within

Exhausted from meltdowns and struggling to stay calm? I help you shift the deep, subconscious beliefs that lead to dysregulation and overwhelm — so you can show up feeling calm, confident, and connected, even in the chaos.

I help you shift the subconscious beliefs driving overwhelm — so you can parent with calm, confidence, and connection.

Parenting a child with ADHD or high needs

Change happens beneath the surface

Parenting strategies assume you can stay calm — but when you’re triggered, that’s exactly what is hardest.

PSYCH-K® works differently. It shifts the subconscious beliefs that drive 95% of your reactions. No years of therapy. No forcing yourself to “just breathe.” Instead, it helps you respond with calm, patience, and presence — even in the most challenging moments.

Benefits you’ll notice:

I've been where you are

I’m Rachel — mum of three, former primary teacher, and someone who knows the exhaustion and overwhelm of parenting.

When my own high-needs child pushed every button I had, PSYCH-K® changed everything. Now, I help parents:

You’re not broken. Neither is your child. You just need support that works.

Parent support that creates real change

What happens when we work together

Every parent’s journey is unique, but the transformation follows a beautiful pattern.

Most parents walk away from their first session feeling lighter, calmer, and more hopeful. The shift is real — and it stays with you.

Create lasting change.

PSYCH-K® rewires patterns at the source, so patience and presence become natural — not forced. This isn’t another strategy to remember when you’re stressed.

Experience true support.

No judgement, just understanding. I believe in honest connection, and I create spaces where you can be real. Your struggles are safe here.

Here are a few quick answers to get you started. For more details about Psych-K, visit our dedicated page about Psych-K.

Does this work for parents of kids with ADHD?

Whether your child has a formal ADHD diagnosis or simply shows intense, reactive, or sensitive behaviors, this work is designed for you. Psych-K helps parents of high-needs children transform their own triggers and stress patterns, creating the calm and stability these children desperately need. Many parents find that as they shift internally, their child’s behavior naturally improves — without forcing strategies or constantly managing symptoms.

How is Psych-K different from traditional parent coaching?

Traditional parent coaching for ADHD focuses on behavior management strategies — what to say, how to respond, which consequences to use. While helpful, these approaches assume you can stay calm enough to implement them. Psych-K works at the source, transforming the subconscious beliefs that trigger your stress responses in the first place. Instead of adding more tools to remember when you’re overwhelmed, we’re actually rewiring your automatic reactions.

Can this work help when my child won't cooperate?

Yes — because we’re not trying to change your child directly. When you’re constantly triggered, your nervous system signals danger to your child, escalating their behavior. Through Psych-K, you’ll develop a genuine sense of calm that your child can feel. This work for parents of high-needs children focuses on your personal transformation, which naturally creates a safer, more regulated environment for your child.

Do I need to understand my childhood to parent my ADHD child better?

Not at all. With Psych-K, you don’t need to analyze your past or relive painful memories. Using specific protocols, we can transform subconscious beliefs and perceptions of stress — whether they come from past experiences, current challenges, or future worries. This allows you to respond differently in the moment, often surprising yourself with newfound patience, calm, and connection with your child.

How quickly will I see changes in my parenting?

Many parents notice a difference after their very first session, often feeling calmer and responding differently to their child’s meltdowns — sometimes immediately. Because Psych-K works at the subconscious level, these shifts can be profound and lasting. However, some patterns and conditioning that drive stress and certain behaviours run very deep, so a few sessions may be needed to create lasting change across all areas.

Are online sessions for parents of ADHD children as effective as in person sessions?

Yes, Psych-K works beautifully online. Since we’re working with your subconscious mind through specific processes and balances, physical location doesn’t matter. Many parents actually prefer the privacy and convenience of sessions from home — especially when managing a high-needs child’s schedule.

What if I've tried everything and nothing helps with my ADHD child?

That’s exactly when Psych-K can help most. If books, strategies, and traditional parenting courses haven’t worked, it’s because they’re addressing the wrong part of your brain. Your conscious mind (5%) can’t override your subconscious reactions (95%). This approach works when nothing else has because we’re finally speaking to the part of you that’s actually in charge during stressful moments.
