Adolescent Coaching
At Chosen Family Coaching, we are always here for you when you need adolescent coaching in Gilbert, AZ. Life coaching for adolescents can deliver various valuable benefits for young people and their families.
Identify
We will identify what issues are negatively impacting an adolescent's life and trace them back to their origins. This is the first step in creating a beneficial plan that will lead to the adolescent overcoming their specific struggles. By tailoring our treatments to your specific family, your adolescent will learn to live a more motivated, happy life.
Focus
We work with adolescents to help them set realistic and achievable goals. Setting goals can be very effective when it comes to helping adolescents to prepare for adult life and work through any current struggles. It can also give them a valuable sense of accomplishment that improves their self-esteem and leaves them feeling more prepared for subsequent challenges.
Coach
We work closely with adolescents and their families to improve their overall well-being and coach them on ways to succeed. Coaching can be provided in-person and over Zoom and text. We can also provide access to teen advocates and mentors for extra support. Plus, we are the only local facility that offers emergency support in times of need.
Our Story
Our company was launched at the height of the pandemic when our founder was a residential director of a boys’ treatment facility. We based our program model on experiential therapy, theraplay and color code modeling. We soon found that the boys we worked with really thrived after receiving this more natural style of therapy. After our founder graduated, she remained in contact with several of these boys and received updates for several months.We have used our experience to prepare children for the outside world and for transitioning into homes, to college and into independent living.
We created Chosen Family after asking children for feedback and finding that few of them knew how to use the tools they had been given in a home life setting. We asked them in which ways we could improve, building our service around their feedback and the information we had gained from working in residential environments for many years.
The name Chosen Family Coaching originates from the fact our founder has eight children, none ofwhichare 100% biologically related to her. When our founder worked with kids in treatment, shefound they quickly began to feel like an extended branch of her kids and loved each and every one ofthem for their distinctive quirks.
