Frequently Asked Questions

How long does parent coaching take to show results?

Most families see noticeable improvements within 2-4 weeks of starting parent coaching. However, the timeline varies depending on the complexity of the challenges and the consistency of implementing new strategies. We provide ongoing support to ensure long-term success.

Is parent coaching covered by insurance in Dubai?

Coverage varies depending on your insurance provider and policy. Many insurance plans in Dubai do cover parent coaching, especially when it's part of a comprehensive family support program. We can help you understand your coverage and work with your insurance provider.

Can parent coaching help with severe behavioral problems?

Yes, parent coaching can be very effective for managing challenging behaviors. However, severe behavioral issues may require additional therapeutic interventions. We assess each situation individually and may recommend a combination of services for optimal results.

What if my partner doesn't want to participate in coaching?
