You don't have to navigate parenting challenges alone
Parenting can be rewarding, exhausting, confusing, and everything in between. Whether you're navigating big feelings and meltdowns, regulation challenges, school concerns, parent overwhelm, or a family transition, having someone alongside you can make a meaningful difference.
Through parent and caregiver coaching, I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can slow down, be yourself, and talk honestly about what's happening in your family.
Together, we'll explore what may be underneath the challenges you're experiencing, deepen your understanding of your child and yourself, and find practical approaches that support regulation, connection, felt safety, and stronger relationships.
My goal isn't to tell you what to do. It's to help you feel more informed, supported, and confident in finding what works for your family.
Who I Support
I work with parents and caregivers across many different family experiences and seasons of life. My approach is individualized because no two children, parents, or families are exactly alike.
I support families navigating:
-
Big feelings, meltdowns, and challenging behaviors
-
Regulation and co-regulation
-
Neurodiversity and developmental differences
-
School concerns, IEPs, and advocacy
-
Parent overwhelm and burnout
-
Divorce, separation, and parenting plans
-
Blended families and family transitions
-
Loss and other significant changes
-
Relationship and connection challenges
-
Parenting highly sensitive and deep-feeling children
I also offer support for couples and co-parents, as well as guidance and education for organizations & educators.
My Approach
When we meet, my goal is to offer you my full attention. I'll listen with curiosity, respect, and compassion, creating a space where you can be honest without feeling judged. I'm not here to tell you what you should do or decide what's right for your family. Instead, I'll listen closely, ask thoughtful questions, and offer perspectives, education, and practical ideas that may help you see things in a new way. I believe parents need co-regulation, too. When we have a safe, supportive relationship where we can slow down and find our footing, we can become more sturdy and steady for our children.
Together, we can explore developmental expectations, regulation, connection, felt safety, relationships, and the unique needs of your child and family.
I'll always do my best to be honest with you while speaking with kindness and care.
Fees & Payment
Individual coaching sessions are offered on a sliding scale of $120–$180 per hour. I invite you to choose the rate that feels appropriate based on your current financial resources. I also offer an $80 per hour accessibility rate so that finances don't have to be a barrier to receiving support.
For families looking for more ongoing support, I offer coaching packages that include additional communication between sessions. You can find more information about packages on the Offerings page.
Payment is due at the time of service.
As a small private practice, I don't accept insurance or credit cards. I accept cash, checks, and Venmo (@BloomingwithBeth).
What to Expect
Coaching is a collaborative process. You don't need to arrive with everything figured out, and you don't need to know exactly what you need before we begin.
You can bring what's happening right now, something that feels difficult, a question you're wrestling with, a parenting situation you don't know how to navigate, or simply the feeling that you're overwhelmed and need support.
I'll listen, ask questions, help you make sense of what's happening, and offer ideas or resources when they may be helpful.
Please feel free to tell me if I misunderstand something you've shared. Your feedback matters, and I want to understand your experience as accurately as I can. Sessions are available in person, by phone, or through Zoom, depending on what works best for you.
Scheduling
You can reach out directly to coordinate a time, or use the Let's Connect! tab to find an available time.
I set aside a full hour for each coaching session and value the time we have together.
Life happens, and I don't typically charge a fee for missed appointments. When possible, I ask that you provide 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or reschedule. If two or more appointments are missed, we'll check in together about whether coaching fits your schedule right now and how we can best support your goals.
Between Sessions
For families who choose a coaching package, you are welcome to reach out between sessions when questions, challenges, or wins arise. I'll respond as I'm able between 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m., and I love being part of the day-to-day moments that come up along the way.
For individual coaching sessions, you're also welcome to email or text with brief updates or check-ins. For bigger conversations, we'll schedule a session so we can give what you're experiencing the time and care it deserves. I may not always be able to respond immediately, but I'll do my best to respond within 24 hours.

I bring all of this experience to our work together while recognizing that you are the expert on your family.
Client Disclosure Statements:
Beth Kim, MAEd. Parent Coach & Educator
Confidentiality and release of Information: I keep a record of the date of services that I provide. This includes dates we meet, only. I have a ethical responsibility to protect your privacy, and I will not normally disclose your records to others and I will not go to court. However, there are some limits to that protection. In some instances, I may be required by law to disclose your confidential information. This will occur if:
1. I have a reason to believe that you or someone else’s life and safety is threatened or endangered.
2. If there is evidence, or even a suspicion of physical or sexual abuse or neglect of a minor child, or vulnerable adult (dependent, developmentally disabled, or incapacitated person).
3. As part of a good professional practice, there are times when I will consult a colleague or supervisor about one of my clients. When I do, I will not disclose any identifying information.
Ready to Talk?
You don't have to have it all figured out before reaching out.
If you're wondering whether parent coaching might be helpful for your family, let's connect. We can talk about what's happening, what kind of support you're looking for, and whether working together feels like a good fit.
