Parent Coaching
In-Person and On-line Counseling Through Secure Portal
There is no right or wrong way to be a parent!
Yet, sometimes your parenting style does not fit with your child because it does not honor a difficult temperament, high emotional needs, disabilities or chronic medical needs. One-size fits all parenting approaches actually do not fit the uniqueness of each child and each parent.
A psychotherapist collaborates with you to decipher the needs of young children, and co-create a repertoire of strategies that you can comfortably apply because you chose it according to your own style. Respectfully, most well-intended “parenting coaches” do not have the necessary mental health training.
Dr. Diana Bermudez (Dr.D) brings over 25 years of experience in child and family counseling, research and teaching to provide highly specialized parent coaching with a family resilience mindset. Although the work is with the parent(s) and focused on a challenging child, the positive changes have powerful effects on the rest of family members… in other words, it is really family coaching! Resilience focuses on strengthening social-emotional skills that replace the challenging behaviors, rather than directly trying to change behaviors.
Parent coaching sessions can involve one or two parents,
and delivered either online or in person at our psychotherapy office.

Insurance Reimbursement
I do not receive payment directly from insurance companies. However, your insurance company may reimburse you directly for the cost of psychotherapy with an out-of-network provider. I will provide you with the necessary receipts. For the purpose if insurance coverage, parent coaching is considered psychotherapy for parent-child conflict.
I encourage you to call your insurance company before the first appointment, to find out what your benefits are for individual and family sessions with an out-of-network provider, if there is a deductible, and how many sessions per year are covered. For the purpose of insurance reimbursement, I am considered an “out of network provider.” Your insurance can look me up with my National Provider Identification (NPI): 1427567965.
