Mastering Parenting, Adult Relationships, and Personal Development: Understanding the parent-child connection as it relates to boundaries, effective communication, understanding our children's behaviour and bringing practical insight to discipline.
Boundaries are personal property lines that define who you are and who you are not, and influence all areas of your life.
With effective communication, you foster cooperation, emotional safety, and clarity. Language is powerful and words matter.
Understand your child's unique temperament, challenging behaviours, and correct your lens for a better, more peaceful parenting experience.
Adopt effective disciplinary strategies, maintaining respect and love while instilling important life values. How are you getting in the way of your child's responsibilities?

In-Person Only - May 4th and May 18th, 10:00 to 2:00
This popular course applies to children of all ages from tots to teens. Each week is packed with information and supported by printed material and audio handouts.

Once parents understand why their children behave the way they do, they are then offered strategies for effective discipline.

This course dives into family dynamics, parenting, couple dynamics, and personal development. It is for anyone committed to developing emotional skills, awareness of relationship patterns, and creating a positive impact in all of their relationships. Only Zoom is available.
