Solutions Parenting Support has been a staple in providing the most effective parent coaching, guidance, and support to parents who have a child either in wilderness therapy, therapeutic boarding school, residential treatment, or to those parents transitioning their children home.  Solutions Parenting Support’s dynamic team of parent coaches has come together to create an extraordinary model for parent coaching and transition support for parents. 

What is the HOME model?

The HOME model considers the process of developing new habits as being on a continuum.  In this work together, Solutions Parenting Support will identify habits that can affect various areas of parenting and guide parents to shape the tone of their home.  The HOME model allows their coaches to evaluate and prioritize focus while supporting parents in self-reflection as they learn and put new skills into practice.

• H = Hone. Honing sharpens one’s understanding, helping parents get clear and specific on the skills they need to learn, through a process of data collection and collaboration. Parents learn the foundations of new communication, relationship and parenting skills, While the home contract takes shape, parents learn to set and communicate goals and expectations clearly.  Skills and language that parents have learned along the way hone their family ethos while prioritizing where their focus and energy are best spent, so they know why and how to move into the next step.
• O = Own.  Ownership is key to knowing what parents have control over.  Knowing what they have control over empowers them to focus their energy where it matters most.  Solutions Parents Support offers compassionate feedback and encourages a “claim don’t blame” mentality. In this step, parents develop a clearer understanding of these skills they want to hone, confront the challenges in front of them and gain a better understanding of the need for change and evolution in relationships and parenting skills. 
• M = Master.  Just as parents hope that their child develops mastery over the tools they learn in treatment, Solutions Parenting. coaches will encourage parents to practice the skills they are being taught and gain a greater clarity and confidence in understanding why they work. 
• E = Enact. As parents own and master these skills, the next step is to put new skills into action regularly and with clarity and confidence.  When parents are able to enact, to make action steps with things over which they have control, regardless of their child’s behavior, they will take charge of the tone of their home.

Hilary Moses, co-founder of Solutions Parenting says this about the HOME model; “We understand that change is a continuum and that parents will move through this model at different paces in relationship to different skills and parenting styles and struggles. Our coaches, who have had extensive careers and experience as therapists in wilderness treatment and residential boarding schools will walk alongside parents and identify where they are in the model and will help parents learn to do the same”
