"We designed Parent Coach because we believe that every child deserves support - and its not always accessible or affordable."
- Tammy Schamuhn, Registered Psychologist & Co-Founder of ICP
Thank you so much. You gave us so much to think about in how we interact with our son. I have honestly noticed a difference in his behaviour, his interactions with his siblings, and the way we are approaching his anxiety.

This course helped validate the things I'm doing right, gave me tools and an understanding of what I can do better as well as helped so much in understanding how ADHD and the brain work. I love my son so much and truly believe in his intelligence and how special he is. I met wonderful people who have the same faith in their children. I would attend any more seminars in our area in a heart beat. Thank you for helping me feel I am not so alone in this journey.

Wow, the best ever workshop I've ever attended in my whole career, thank you for visiting Calgary! Tammy, you have answered all the overwhelming dilemma I see in the children's, family, and the world's system of techno these days. Thank you for standing & advocating for what you believe in the world of social media of the children. Hope you will have another date like this here in Calgary so I can refer it to all the parents, caregivers, teachers I know. I will for sure shout to the world the answer to all the questions (like what I have) of the modern world of human kind in the gadgets today. More power to you & your team!

Thank you so much for sharing your kindness, understanding and knowledge with us yesterday. Your deep knowledge about the anatomy of a child's brain helped me understand my son better and relate to him in a way I thought was not possible prior to this workshop. Thank you for giving me the tools that will help me get my little boy back and help him develop into a resilient and healthy teenager.

Parent Coach provides guidance for parents of children from 18 months – 18 years, with responses tailored to your child’s specific developmental stage.
No. Parent Coach is not a substitute for professional mental health treatment. Think of it as the expert guidance layer between sessions. It’s there for the everyday questions, the 2 a.m. moments, and the situations where you need a quick, trustworthy answer. If your child needs clinical support, we always encourage working with a licensed professional.
A Google search gives you a mix of blog posts, forum opinions, outdated advice, and SEO-optimized articles that may or may not be written by anyone qualified. You spend 20-45 minutes reading, comparing, and still aren’t sure what to trust. Parent Coach gives you a single, clear, evidence-based answer in seconds, drawn from a curated library of content from over 100 world-leading child psychologists.
ChatGPT pulls answers from the entire internet, including outdated research, parenting blogs, and unverified sources. It gives you no way to check where the advice came from. Parent Coach is built on years of curated, evidence-based child psychology content from the Institute of Child Psychology, with over 100 world-leading experts contributing. Every response cites its sources so you can verify the guidance yourself.
Yes. Your questions and family information are kept confidential and are never shared.
