Parenting
Our parenting resources are designed to help you parent from a place of grace, truth, and the heart of Jesus: no matter what. The same trauma-informed and Jesus-centered principles that shape our therapeutic programming are woven into parent coaching, small groups, and events. We want adoptive parents to find support, encouragement, and community here, because there is grace for your family and you don’t have to figure it out alone! Explore our parenting support to grow in courage alongside other parents and carry the growth and healing you experience at the farm into everyday life at home.

Parent coaching is offered by Lydia, Connected Families Certified Parent Coach and TBRI Practitioner. Parent Coaching is tailored to the needs of each family, and can take place in person at the farm or online. Typically, families complete 4-5 initial sessions and then return as needed. We encourage both parents to attend whenever possible!
Parent Coaching at Bien Aimé Farm is built on:

Parent coaching is collaborative and practical. You’ll get the most out of it by reviewing and practicing what you’re learning between sessions - even if that’s one tiny step at a time.
Lydia has flexibility to schedule coaching around your child’s art or equine sessions, if you don’t see a time that works for you on the booking page, please email her directly to schedule.
