Would you like to smooth the waters between you and your child? (ages 3-9) Does it feel like too long since your child responded willingly to your requests? Perhaps his/her self control has become a challenging issue? Perhaps some of these challenges have spilled into the school setting? I am a retired Special Needs teacher with 30 years of experience. I offer practical tools to create a more peaceful existence in your home. Individualization to family's needs and maintaining the dignity of your child are high on my list of offerings. My style is softly persistent, with a focus on providing the parent with the confidence to navigate challenging waters. My work is a labor of love, a calling. I am fortunate to be able to provide these skills to those who are open to receive. One 6-year-old boy, who had initially resisted changing his behavior, at the end, initiated, "Mom and I had a problem. We solved it this way........" Feel free to reach out for any clarification.
