When Parenting Feels Hard
Alces can help.
You don't need to have all the answers. You just need a place to start.
You Don’t Have to Navigate this Alone
Parenting comes with questions, unexpected challenges, and moments when it can be difficult to know what to do next. When the same struggles keep happening, it can be hard to understand why—or how to respond in a way that truly helps.
Through virtual, one-on-one parenting coaching for Utah families, Alces Academy offers practical, evidence-based support to help you better understand behavior, discover strategies that work for your family, and approach everyday challenges with greater confidence.
Meet from the comfort of home, with support tailored to your concerns, goals, and everyday routines.

Understanding Comes Before Change
When challenging behavior keeps happening, it’s easy to feel frustrated, overwhelmed, or unsure what to try next. Understanding why behavior happens can help you find a way forward.
Through coaching, you’ll learn to recognize patterns, approach challenges with curiosity rather than judgment, and find practical strategies that support your child’s growth and your family’s well-being.
The goal isn’t perfect parenting or perfect behavior. It’s understanding behavior, building skills, and finding what works in real life.
How Parent Coaching Can Help
Learn to recognize patterns and consider what may be contributing to your child's behavior. Develop a clearer understanding of the relationship between your child's needs, the environment, and everyday interactions.
Understand Behavior
Build confidence as you explore evidence-based strategies for teaching new skills, supporting communication, navigating routines, and responding to challenging moments. Focus on approaches you can realistically use in your everyday life.
Build Confidence
Transform everyday challenges into opportunities for connection. Approach hard moments with confidence, supporting your child's growth while building deep trust and strengthening relationships.
Strengthen Connection
A Practical, Collaborative Approach
Every child and family is different. Coaching starts with understanding your values and strengths, identifying concerns and priorities, and developing your family vision.
Together, we’ll explore patterns, set meaningful goals, and design practical strategies that fit your life. We'll pay close attention to what is working, what isn't, and what needs to change.
My approach is grounded in behavioral science and shaped by a simple belief: understanding behavior creates opportunities for meaningful change.
Virtual Coaching, Centered on Your Family
Parenting support should fit into your life—not add another layer of stress to it.
Virtual sessions allow you to connect with Alces Academy from home, without the need to travel. Together, we'll discuss the challenges you're experiencing, explore patterns in your everyday routines, and develop practical strategies that fit your family's needs.
Because the focus is on your real-life experiences, you can bring questions and concerns directly from the situations you're navigating at home.
Convenient and accessible: Meet virtually from a space that works for you.
Personalized support: Focus on your family's priorities and goals.
Practical strategies: Explore approaches you can apply in everyday situations.
Collaborative problem-solving: Reflect on what works, what doesn't, and what to try next.
What to Expect
The process is collaborative, individualized, and focused on meaningful progress—not perfection.
You don't need a diagnosis, a crisis, or a perfectly defined goal to benefit from learning more about behavior.
Whether you are looking for specialized expertise to navigate the unique challenges of autism, ADHD, ODD, or anxiety, or you simply want to feel more confident in how you respond to your child, we can help. Support begins right where you are—by understanding what is happening and identifying one useful next step.
