Meet Jaci Finneman

Founder of Hello World - No-Problem Parenting

Jaci Finneman is passionate about helping parents become confident leaders for their kids, find happiness in their day-to-day routine, and bring peace back into their homes.

She has been working with families and children for over 30 years. Before starting Hello World, Jaci spent over 20 years as a Family Counselor meeting with kids and parents directly in their homes and helping them to deal with and overcome their behavioral challenges.

During her time working with children, the focus was always on “the problem,” or the diagnosis. Jaci intentionally shifted to teach parents how to give “the problem” less attention and instead, focus on the solution.

In 2013 Jaci started Hello World, a company dedicated to empowering parents to become the confident leaders their kids crave them to be through a model she calls No-Problem Parenting!

When parents feel confident, their kid's behavior improves! Jaci supports and teaches parents how to be the best leader (and advocates) for their children, to transform their kids' behavior, and reclaim their family's peace.

“My coaching is parent-focused. Parents are their own child’s experts. I am here to empower parents, to help them help their child.”                                   – Jaci Finneman

What is parent coaching?

You’ve heard of life coaching and career coaching.  Enter parent coaching – a program dedicated to parents that offers alternative perspectives around family situations.  Parent coaching uncovers strategies to shift behavior and family dynamics. It helps single parents, couples, or a parent navigating a difficult divorce, achieve their parenting goals. I coach on how to survive and thrive the day-to-day behaviors that a resistant or withdrawn child might throw at you. I'll help you get to the root of the problems in your home and then teach you strategies for how to respond to your kids while improving your trusting relationships with them.

Parent coaching is not clinical therapy. It’s not designed to delve into complicated family dynamics of the past, or work through crisis.  Jaci’s years of experience have made her very astute to knowing if a family needs to transition to professional clinical help- she can (and will) assist in arranging that move.  Many therapists refer their clients to Jaci for preliminary evaluation, to prepare them for and get the most out of traditional therapy.
