One of the greatest support systems we can provide for our children is a safety net of supportive and uplifting role models.
Our online Youth Coaching takes a village approach to supporting and empowering children and teens. At Standing Strong we assist parents and families by helping them through their parenting journey. Our specialised Youth Coaches are here to encourage, support, inspire and motivate your child to be the best they CAN BE!
Standing Strong one-to-one Youth Coaching is a personalised, empowering and solutions focused approach to supporting children and teens through the challenges they face.
Designed as a mental health early intervention and crisis prevention option, Youth Coaching is supportive, comforting, non-clinical, family focused and 100% online.
Standing Strong Youth Coaching covers 40 personal development topics, each with a clear focus on encouraging productive decision making, goal setting, positive attitudes, personal responsibility, accountability, encouragement, connection and support.
First Online Session: The first session is a ‘get-to-know-you’ discovery session. Your Youth Coach will explore 6 key areas of your child’s life and uncover what your child feels is going well and what is not going so well. From there, together they will explore what changes your child feels would be beneficial to their life. By the end of the first session, your child and their coach will create a goal for your child to move forward with. They will also explore the Standing Strong topics which are available for ongoing sessions.
Ongoing Online Sessions: Each ongoing session covers a particular Standing Strong topic. Topics can be chosen by parents/carers, children/teens, or can be recommended by Youth Coaches. When booking future sessions, you will be able to select the particular topic you would like your child to explore within the session. During the session your Youth Coach will go through a series of discussion questions related to the topic, top tips for creating positive change, challenge questions to work through and a take away goal. There will also be a motivational component to help inspire, empower and uplift your child.
The greatest influence in a child’s life is their parents. We’re here to help parents feel more supported, more informed and less alone on their parenting journey.
“Thank you so much for the work that you have done with Sarah. I am so grateful for your support and can’t believe how far she has come in such a short time. I love that she has role models like you and the rest of the team. She tells me that she wants to be just like you when she is an adult and is keen to study psychology so that she can also help young women.” – Kelly (Happy Parent)
