Groups for Kids
Parenting Wellness
I have talked to hundreds of great parents who feel discouraged and overwhelmed. They tell me that they argue all the time, their child/ren won't listen to them, and they fight over the smallest things.

All parents will struggle with their children at times and that is why I have designed this parent wellness program. I am looking for serious parents who understand the value in investing some time and energy into the most important jobs of their lives. I will share valuable information and easy to use techniques at each parenting event that will allow parents to gain more peace of mind and confidence.

Parent Support Group
You are trying so hard to be a good parent and things are just not going well right now! Your child is struggling to make good decisions at school and at home. He/she may be argumentative, rude, disrespectful or have selective hearing. Your child may be throwing tantrums, destroying their rooms, yelling at you or constantly fighting with their sibling. If you have teen-agers they may be sneaking out at night, hanging out with the wrong kids or in trouble with the law. You have tried to discipline them but nothing seems to work. You have read the books but they never answer the question, "and what if that doesn't work"? If you would like to understand the possible reasons your child is acting out and what to do about it, then this is a great group for you.
PURPOSE
In this weekly group, we will focus on the most advanced and powerful techniques in changing child behaviors. You will be given techniques that work! You will also be given the support necessary to implement these techniques effectively (something a book can't provide). We will talk about the importance of building a healthy relationship with your child. We will discuss how that relationship might look given your child's unique personality and current situation. We will also talk about ways to maintain that healthy relationship when it is being challenged. We will utilize information from the most current parenting experts to help you and your child come together. Problem behaviors will decrease making room for more positive behaviors.
BENEFITS
-Negative behaviors will decrease.
-Children will be happier and more joyful.
-Relationships will grow stronger and deeper.
-Parents will learn what children need from them.
-Positive behaviors will increase.
-Parents will see the child's true self.

Counseling
Play Therapy
Play is the natural way that children communicate. Children play as a way of working out their problems. As a trained play therapist my job is to listen and understand what the child's inner world feels like to them. During our sessions, I can support the child through play in developing new coping skills. Play Therapy is the ideal treatment method for children ages 5-15. Parents are always asking me, "What can I do to help my child" and I will meet with them to discuss changes they can make at home to support their child's growth.

: Behavioral issues - tantrums, defiance, arguing and acting out.
: Emotional Management (Anger, Anxiety, Stress or Depression).
: School Behaviors - behaving in class, school performance, peer interactions.
: Social Issues - getting along with other children and family members.
