What is children's coaching?
Sessions are goal-led and practical, using conversation, activities and tools your child can actually use, whether that is handling a difficult friendship, managing hard mornings or communicating a need. Coaching runs from age 7 to 18, in North London and online. It is not therapy, counselling, diagnosis or crisis support, and if your child needs that kind of help, Ruby will say so and help you find the right next step.
Coaching for neurodivergent children and children with SEN
Ruby offers individually tailored coaching for neurodivergent children and children with SEN. Sessions may include movement breaks, visual or written tools, explicit language and time to build trust. Strategies are chosen with the child, and the aim is never to teach a child to mask. Where the difficulty is the learning itself, there is more on SEN and neurodivergent tuition.
Coaching also runs online for international and expat families. There is more on the page for international families.
