Registration for Personal Consultations
with Dr. Laura Markham
What does coaching cost?
Dr. Laura allots limited hours for telephone consultations and keeps those rates the same as her in-person sessions: $110 for one hour. If you only have a small question and don't need a whole hour, you can schedule a 30 minute session for $60.
What if I need more time?
If Dr. Laura has availability to expand your call at the time she will do so upon your request, and ask you to come back to this page to increase your payment later. If she can't expand your slot at that moment, she will schedule another session with you while you're talking.
An hour is usually enough time to give you some clear ideas about what to work on to get some immediate change in the right direction. Often, you'll want to schedule a follow-up session in a week to refine your plan as you implement it.
You can always email Dr. Laura in advance of the coaching session with background info to save time during the call, and between sessions for additional support.
What if I'm disappointed in the consultation?
You'll be the first! Seriously, Dr. Laura offers a personal guarantee: If you aren't completely thrilled with what you get out of the call, your payment will be cheerfully refunded, no questions asked, within a week of receiving your email to Dr. Laura Markham (DrLauraMarkham@AhaParenting.com) asking for a refund.
How do I make an appointment?
Click below for the form to register. Dr. Laura will personally email you within 24 hours (usually much sooner) to make an appointment. Usually appointments can be arranged within a couple of days, and we guarantee you won't wait longer than a week.
What if we can't find a time to meet soon, and I've already paid?
Again, that has never happened, because Dr. Laura makes sure it doesn't. But in a case where it did, your payment would be promptly refunded.
Do I have to commit to the same time every week?
Definitely not. You may want one session, you may want to meet weekly for a couple of months, you may want to meet occasionally over a period of years. You decide the schedule.
How do I pay?
Just fill out the registration form below, and pay the appropriate amount for the time you'd like to reserve ($110 for one hour, $60 for 30 minutes).

Dear Dr. Laura,
I honestly feel like that is the best advice I have ever received. I am already seeing things differently and I promise you that I will follow every step and improve this situation.Things are coming around for our family and getting better slowly but surely. I can sense my stress level lifting a bit and I want to capitalize on that. You are very talented at what you do. Thank you very much for taking the time to care! I hope it encourages you to know that what you told me to do (everything from starting school - which I am registering for right now - to taking time to find fun ways to clean up - and even to stop taking out my frustrations on a helpless two year old (who is just that... a two year old) I will do it. Thank you so much again and God bless you for your selfless work. Sincerely, Jessica
