Parent Coaching
for Emotional Regulation & Connection

Parenting can feel overwhelming - especially when you're trying to parent thoughtfully, break old patterns, and respond diﬀerently from how you were raised.

You may find yourself questioning your decisions, feeling stuck in repeated dynamics, or carrying the constant pressure of wanting to get it right.

I'm Anya Reddy, a PCI® Certified Parent Coach based in Bangalore. I work with parents who want support that is honest, reflective, and grounded in their own values - not a script someone else wrote.

📍Sessions available in person in Bangalore and online.

Why Parents Choose to Work With Me

Most parent coaches support parents. I also work directly with children.

As both a Certified Synergetic Play Therapist and a PCI® Certified Parent Coach I understand not just what parents are going through - but what their child's behaviour is communicating beneath the surface.

This means our work together is informed by a deep, clinical understanding of children's emotional worlds, nervous systems, and developmental needs. Not just parenting theory.

In addition to my private practice, I work as a Consultant Parent Coach with Humm Care, supporting working parents across organisations including Google, Accenture, and Wipro.

My approach is:

Trauma-informed and nervous system-aware
Strengths-based - we build on what's already working
Neurodiversity-aﬃrming and LGBTQIA+ aﬃrming
Collaborative, not prescriptive - you lead, I walk beside you

Parent Coaching is not therapy, and it is not advice-giving. It is a reflective, goal-oriented process that helps you understand what's happening in your family and find your own way forward - with clarity, confidence, and less self-doubt.

“That Changed Everything.”

“I went into Parent Coaching unsure of what to expect. I wanted to see whether there was anything that could help me better support my daughter - a shift in perspective, something I hadn't considered before. That's exactly what Anya helped me find.
Together, we explored what I was already doing well as both a person and a parent, instead of focusing only on what I thought I lacked. We spoke about cultural expectations, guilt, the pressure of being the default parent, and my hopes for my daughter.
The turning point came when Anya helped me realise that my intuition is my greatest strength - not something to doubt, but something to trust. That changed everything. I walked away feeling more confident, grounded, and capable of making decisions that
genuinely aligned with both myself and my child.”

— Christina, mother of a 10-year-old child, Singapore (Online Parent Coaching)*

Common Reasons Parents Reach Out

Parents often contact me when:

Parenting feels emotionally exhausting, confusing, or isolating
They feel stuck in repeated patterns they can't seem to break
Their child's behaviour or emotional needs feel hard to understand or respond to
They're questioning their responses and second-guessing themselves often
They want to parent more consciously and break intergenerational cycles
They're navigating a major transition - a new sibling, school change, separation, or new chapter
Parenting a tween or teen feels increasingly disconnected or conflicted
They simply want more ease, connection, and confidence at home

You do not need to be in crisis to reach out. Many parents come to coaching because something feels stuck - not because everything has fallen apart.

How Parent Coaching Helps

Through our work together, parents often experience:

Greater confidence in their own decisions - and less second-guessing
Relief from the weight of constant guilt and self-doubt
Stronger emotional regulation in themselves - and a calmer home as a result
A clearer understanding of what their child's behaviour is really communicating
More ease, connection, and genuine closeness at home
A renewed sense of trust in themselves and in their relationship with their child

What We Can Work On Together

Our work is always guided by what feels most relevant and pressing for you. Common areas include:

Emotional regulation - yours and your child's
Parenting stress, burnout, or overwhelm
Sibling rivalry and shifting family dynamics
Screen time, boundaries, and conscious routines
Communication with tweens and teens
Sleep challenges and transition anxiety
Rebuilding trust, connection, and closeness
Preparing for or adjusting to new parenthood

Sessions are conversational, reflective, and tailored entirely to your goals and family context.

Coaching is typically structured as weekly sessions (60 minutes each), with the number of sessions depending on your goals and needs. Some parents seek short-term support around a specific challenge. Others benefit from longer-term reflective work.

Support for New and Expecting Parents

Together, we may explore:

Managing anxiety, stress, and overwhelm
Building realistic expectations for early parenthood

This is a space to reflect, plan, and step into parenthood with awareness and compassion.

What Parents Say

Parenting Through Transition, Reflection & Emotional Growth

“I entered Parent Coaching with Anya feeling increasingly unsure of myself as a parent, especially as my child moved into the preteen years. Over time, the process became deeply resourcing in ways I hadn't expected.
Anya created a space where I could reflect on patterns, expectations, and relational dynamics with honesty and compassion. Her warm, thoughtful presence and non-directive approach helped me integrate both nurture and structure with greater ease. What I'm most grateful for is the renewed sense of trust in myself and the deeper faith I now have in the bond between my child and me. Parenting feels more natural, spacious, and connected than it once did.”

— Vinti Mehta, mother of a preteen child, Bangalore

Family Dynamics, Connection & Collaborative Parenting

“We had a wonderful experience working with Anya as our Parent Coach. She helped us identify our parenting styles and strengths, showing us how we complement one another in raising our child.
Her approach was practical, thoughtful, and encouraging - focusing on small but meaningful shifts that created noticeable changes within our family life. Anya created a safe space for reflection and helped us build routines and practices that felt natural, supportive, and sustainable.”

— S & J, parents of an 11-year-old child, Bangalore*

Feeling Seen, Supported & Emotionally Safe

“I wholeheartedly recommend Anya. From our very first Parent Coaching session, her warmth and patience instantly put me at ease. She has a remarkable ability to create a safe space where diﬃcult feelings and concerns can be explored openly and without
judgement.
What stood out most was how thoughtfully she adapted her support to my family's unique dynamics. After each session, I left feeling more empowered, emotionally supported, and equipped with practical shifts that genuinely felt manageable in everyday
life.”

— Neerja M., mother of two preteen children, Pune

Parenting Stress, Emotional Support & Everyday Family Life

“I had a wonderful experience attending Parent Coaching sessions with Anya. One of the biggest takeaways for me was learning the importance of appreciating myself within this
journey.
The process felt warm, supportive, and grounding. I left feeling more encouraged, emotionally aware, and better equipped to navigate parenting challenges with greater calm and confidence.”

— Deepika Mandana, mother of two boys, Bangalore

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Parent Coaching the same as therapy?

No. Parent Coaching is not psychotherapy or mental health treatment. It is a reflective, goal-oriented process focused on present-day parenting challenges, relational growth, and building confidence and clarity. If deeper therapeutic support feels needed - for you or your child - I'll always be honest about that.

Do I need to be struggling to benefit?

Not at all. Many parents come to coaching because they want to parent more consciously, strengthen connection with their child, or simply feel more grounded. You don't need to be in crisis.

Do both parents need to attend?

Not necessarily. Some families find one caregiver attending individually works well. Others prefer both parents to participate. We can discuss what feels most realistic during our first conversation.

How is this different from Filial Play Therapy?

Parent Coaching focuses primarily on supporting you - through reflection, emotional awareness, and relational shifts. Filial Play Therapy involves guided therapeutic play between parent and child, strengthening connection directly through play-based experiences. Both can work beautifully alongside each other.
