Complicated Kids Why You Need a Parent Coach with Lisa Chan
Parents are essential to children's developmental process, especially when those children are dealing with challenges like ADHD, autism, and sensory processing issues. During this episode of The Complicated Kids Podcast I dive into the essential role of parents alongside occupational therapist-turned-parent coach, Lisa Chan. We discuss why therapy alone isn't enough, and why parents need to be empowered with the right tools to support their kids at home. We explore how children's nervous systems respond to stress, why logic doesn't work during meltdowns, and how to rebuild connection after cycles of conflict.
