Your child's most important teacher is you.
Your child spends a small fraction of their week in therapy. The rest of the time — almost all of it — they’re with you. At home. In the car. At the grocery store. At grandma’s. At bedtime when everything’s been hard.
That’s why parent training isn’t an afterthought at Solara. It’s one of the most important parts of what we do. Because if the strategies that work in therapy don’t show up in everyday life at home, the progress doesn’t really stick. And the parent who knows your child best — you — deserves real tools, not hand-waving advice.
We don't just explain — we practice together.
Reading about behavior strategies in a book is one thing. Actually using them when your child is screaming in a grocery store is another.
We listen first
Every program starts with what your family is actually dealing with — the daily challenges, the moments that feel hardest, the goals that matter most.
We model the strategy
You watch your clinician demonstrate the strategy with your child, in real situations. No abstract theory, no role-play with stuffed animals.
You practice with support
You try the strategy yourself, with your clinician right there to coach in real time. We adjust, refine, and answer questions as they come up.
We follow up and refine
Strategies get tweaked based on how they actually work in your home. What works in a quiet session might need adjusting for Saturday-morning chaos.
Real solutions for the toughest moments.
Common topics include potty training, tough routines like mornings and bedtime, behavioral support, sibling dynamics, communication strategies at home, and what to do when things escalate. Every program is customized to your family’s specific situation.
If you’re facing a challenge that doesn’t fit a neat category — bring it up. We’ll tackle it together.
A working partnership, not a class.
Parent training at Solara isn’t a curriculum we run on you. It’s a working relationship with a clinician who knows your child and your situation.
Customized to your family
Every session focuses on what you’re dealing with right now — not a generic checklist of skills.
Flexible scheduling
Sessions happen at times that work for you, including evenings where available. We adjust to your life.
Coordinated with the team
If your child is also in therapy with us, your parent coach and your child’s behavior analyst stay in close communication — so strategies stay consistent.
