Episode 18: Dana Baltutis (Parent Coach and Speech Pathologist) - Can one person be your Child's Therapist and your Coach at the Same Time?
Your Child's Therapist wants to help you and your child to the best of their abilities and sometimes it's hard to meet the needs of the child and the needs of the parent in the same session at the same time. During this episode I talk about the role a therapist plays as the Child's Therapist where they are coaching the parent around strategies they are using with the child in the here and now context for the child in the child's session, and when they are coaching the parent as the Parent Coach around concerns the parent may have around their parenting skills which are about situations outside of the therapy room. Can these two types of coaching (for the child and the parent) occur at the same time, or do they need to be addressed at different times?
