HCS Core Values
Remaining Child-Focused is Paramount
The wellbeing of the children within each family we work with is considered first and foremost. This sometimes results in providing unconventional advice, and what really sets us apart from many other professionals working within the same niche. We give advice that our clients NEED which means the advice is not always what they want to hear but is ALWAYS in their children’s best interests.
We Choose What's Right Over Convenience
We pride ourselves on possessing very strong moral compasses, which we believe is critical when working with such vulnerable clients. Unfortunately, there are coaches and businesses within the parental alienation niche that view this vulnerability as a business opportunity. We do not! We maintain ourselves in the highest of integrity and honesty when obtaining and serving our clients.
Collaboration is KEY
More minds are better than one. We believe that banding together as a team and working collaboratively with other ethical professionals is key in bringing about change and solving the epidemic of alienation that is dominating the family courts.
Everyone is Worthy of Compassion
Working with parents within the parental alienation niche can be extremely emotionally exhausting, and at times, even frustrating. The thing we must always remember is that even a parent who is acting poorly is doing so out of fear, pain, and often trauma. We, therefore, strive to exercise compassion towards all parties, even those who engage in inappropriate behaviors.
Quality is Remembered
Although perfection is not expected, quality of care and advice are incredibly important to us. We are motivated, driven and care deeply about doing the best job possible. This forms a foundational core value in our business.
What We Don't Know, We Learn
We believe that people should never stop learning. An open mind and thirst for expanding our knowledge base are two very prominent and important driving factors that form the foundation of our company. This is what, we believe, will continue to keep us at the forefront within our niche.
We Value Transparent and Open Communication
Our business largely revolves around effective communication, whether it be teaching parents how to manage conflict, communicating new ideas to other professionals representing our clients, or maintaining positive relationships within our business. Transparent, open and respectful communication provides opportunities to learn and eliminates misunderstanding. It is an expectation of our clients, students, coaches, and ourselves.
Be Fearlessly Real
Being vulnerable is hard, but the truth of the matter is that every single parent and child we speak to is in a very vulnerable position. Meeting them with our own authenticity is extremely validating and builds trust immediately. An individual will not remember what you said, but they will always remember how you made them feel.
