Rachel Sklar

"Hi, I'm Rachel Sklar, a parent coach and mom to 3 boys. Over the past decade, I've had the privilege of helping hundreds of parents navigate the challenges of raising strong-willed kids.

I specialize in supporting moms of boys and working parents who struggle with kids that don't listen, get emotionally explosive, and have trouble following directions, whether or not they have a diagnosis like ADHD, ASD, SPD, PDA, etc...

I assist parents in addressing all sorts of issues, including sibling rivalry, lack of motivation, screen time battles, aggressive behavior, back talk, losing your patience, parenting under stress, and getting on the same page as your partner. In my practice, I emphasize an approach grounded in brain development, addressing core needs, establishing systems and routines, and nurturing relationships. I believe in a heart-centered, no-nonsense approach that is fully customizable to the unique strengths and challenges of each family. As your parenting coach, I will listen deeply, without judgment, and celebrate your courage to be vulnerable and grow as a parent.

Together, we'll design a parenting approach that works for you and your child. I'll guide and support you every step of the way."
