Parenting Skills
Court approved. Using traditional, contemporary and non-violent philosophy, parents explore options to guiding children to become productive, well-adjusted, loving and caring individuals. Using common sense and cognitive behavioral techniques, we focus on how to communicate, when to discipline, who makes decisions, building self control, aim to save relationships and encourage school success. Evaluation of the child's environment is a must to include trust, emotional support, and respect. The goal is to correct and change problem behaviors that disrupt family harmony. Single, divorced, or married parents accepted.
