Solutions Parenting Support’s dynamic team of parent coaches have come together to create another exceptional program that provides coaching and mentoring to adolescents and young adults.

Solutions is excited to announce that its seasoned and skilled parent coaches, Hanna Young and Toni Mazzaglia, will be joined by two industry therapists in the industry, Jeff Scott and Justin Larkin, who will provide mentoring and coaching services.

“We have spent a great deal of time developing our mentoring program to ensure that the young person has agency in the mentoring and coaching support they receive, and that their family will also get the coaching needed to be successful. We are eager and excited to see our experience and skillset as a team be utilized in this way,” said Solutions co-owner Jen Murphy, who, together with her team, is embarking on the development of her second nationally recognized mentoring program.

Solutions Parenting Support’s Young Person Coaching Services is designed for 11-28 year-olds that are interested in shaping their lives by identifying their strengths, their needs, and their vision for who they want to be and how they want to show up through life’s challenges. The Young Person Coaching Services also provides family coaching sessions throughout the process to ensure that the young person and their family are receiving continued support as they navigate changes within the family system.

Quotes from Hilary Moses are Features in Article about BPD

Solutions coaches understand that coaching and therapy are different. Our goal as coaches is to support you in the action steps that will support you in identifying and moving towards goals.

That said, one thing that as helped to set us apart in our over a decade of experience coaching remotely, is that each member of our coaching team is trained as a therapist. We pride ourselves on not only our experience in clinical and experiential modalities, but also in staying abreast of the latest studies and research.

If you or our loved ones are managing a mental illness you know the importance of empathy and understanding, you know that certain approaches work, and you know it is hard to stay consistent. By allowing our understanding of diagnostic approaches to inform our practical advise we are able to tailor our coaching to the unique make up of your family.

Hilary Moses was recently featured in an article that demonstrates the kind of expertise our team holds.

Don’t Take Things Personally:

“There is so much push and pull in relationships when it comes to BPD and it is great to master the art of not taking things personally. Set boundaries, yes, model healthy relationship interactions, yes, but don’t take it personally when the attacks come. The push and pull you might experience tends to be their self-preservation, their way of feeling in control of something, their way of hurting others before they (presumably) get hurt so as to feel on the winning end of the hurt.” – Hilary Moses, LCSW

Jen and Hilary discuss "H.O.M.E.: Strategies for Making Home a SUCCESS During and After Treatment

Jen and Hilary discuss that after years of working together at Solutions Parenting Support, they wrote a book about the many issues they address when coaching parents whose teens and young adults are in wilderness therapy.

"H.O.M.E." offers profound insights into the journey of wilderness therapy and other treatment options from two skilled practitioners and teachers. The two authors reveal how they went about co-writing the book, what they hope are the key takeaways for readers, and why the H.O.M.E. acronym works so well.

Writing H.O.M.E. – a new roadmap for parents with kids in treatment with, Solutions Parenting Support

"The experience of parenting a child in treatment or recovery almost always feels like totally uncharted territory. And for each of us as individuals, it usually is.⁠ But what if there was a way to zoom out and find patterns within thousands of family experiences? With that insight, we might even be able to predict situations parents will find themselves in and prepare ourselves appropriately... ⁠

"H.O.M.E. is not just a guidebook to chart the territory you're in. It's also an entire model to sustain personal growth during an incredibly difficult time."⁠ ⁠- Brenda Zane, The Stream Community

Breast cancer had taken Amy, and Stephanie, now 52, knew it was important to honor the fact that Amy would always be her stepkids’ mother. She still bakes a cake on Amy’s birthday. And on Mother’s Day weekend, the Webbs visit Amy’s grave in the West Point, Utah, cemetery.

Earth Day 2015: Planting the Seeds of Recovery

Horticultural therapy — or the practice of gardening to promote well-being — has been used in a variety of treatment settings, including mental health and addiction rehabilitation programs. Horticultural therapy offers a wide range of benefits for people in recovery. Here are a few, shared with Addiction.com by leading therapists, including Hilary Moses:

“There are rich metaphors [between horticultural therapy and recovery]. For example, when you weed a garden, you need to get to the root of the weed to really make a serious dent … If you just pluck the problem from the surface it will flourish below and get more and more difficult to manage. Horticultural therapy also puts [patients] in a caregiving position when they feel like they can’t care for anything, let alone themselves. They learn the nuances of caretaking … they are able to learn through discovering and taking risks (which builds resilience in the brain), with minimal consequences.” – Hilary Moses, LCSW, transition specialist, parent coach and co-owner of Solutions Transitional Support, LLC
