Parenting Therapy for ADHD & Sensitive Tweens in MA
Parenting & Family Connection
Parenting a spirited, sensitive, or ADHD tween can feel overwhelming, especially when connection turns into conflict. If you’re walking on eggshells, stuck in power struggles, or unsure how to truly reach your child, you’re not alone.
This work is about rebuilding connection, strengthening communication, and creating a calmer, more respectful dynamic at home.
Nurtured Heart Approach
Learn practical tools to shift from constant correction to intentional connection. The Nurtured Heart Approach helps you recognize and energize your child’s strengths, reduce negative patterns, and build emotional resilience, especially powerful for spirited or ADHD tweens.
Replace yelling, shutdowns, and misunderstandings with clear, compassionate communication. NVC gives your family language for needs, boundaries, and feelings, so conflicts become opportunities for growth instead of disconnection.
Nonviolent Communication (NVC)
Family & Online therapy for moms in Boston and across Massachusetts Connection Support
Reduce power struggles
Strengthen emotional regulation (for both you and your child)
Build mutual respect
Create more moments of warmth and cooperation
You don’t need to parent harder. You need tools that actually work, and support while you practice them.
Let’s help your family feel connected, understood, and steady again.
Parent Therapy | Boston, MA | Rachel Z
Mom of Two
“I have learned so much about parent-child communication from Rachel Zavertnik, and her sessions has transformed the most difficult behavior (outbursts, hyperactivity). I have more empathy, stronger boundaries, and a far greater capacity for handling uncomfortable (parenting) situations. All of this has happened more quickly and with more ease than I had ever imagined.”
