Introducing:

The Partnering with Parents of Complex Kids

Parent Support Group 

 

During this six-session bi-monthly parent support group for parents of complex kids of school age to young adult, you get the connection, skills and accountability you need to take on your challenges by:

• Learning about targeted strategies that work to build stronger relationships in your family

• Discovering skills to help you and your child of any age cope with the daily management of your child’s challenges

• Focusing on your child’s strengths and what your child CAN do rather than your child’s limitations and what he CAN’T do

• Living with less stress, more peace and calm, and reconnecting to the joys of parenting 

• Developing ways to prioritize the change you want

• Identifying personalized action steps to get there

• Examining obstacles that may get in the way

• Hearing what works for other parents

• Having a network of support to keep you from getting mired in self-defeat

Totally. Risk. Free. If you decide group support is not right for you, fees will be totally refunded less session one. You also have the option to apply the funds to private coaching, even if it's only a one-time session.

Here are some of the topics we can cover together: Mom and Daughter on Piggy Back in Sun

The Impact of the Executive Functioning Challenges: you’ll develop an understanding of how to help your child of any age and your family, depending on their challenges and strengths, and you’ll look at your own executive functioning too!

Motivation: you’ll tap into what motivates you and your child for change to occur, and to bring out the best in you and your family

Boundaries: we’ll look at setting and holding parental boundaries as well as the boundaries you set for yourself

Time Management: we’ll examine the “busy-ness” of your family system, and helping your child of any age manage their time at or away from home, so you and they can stick to what’s important 

Decisions: we’ll look at streamlining decision-making so that decisions are made calmly and consistently, and so you can help your child make decisions as well 

Triggers: we’ll discuss recognizing triggers, managing them, and implementing consistent ways to overcome these cycles for more peace at home

Self-Care: is about refueling yourself, so you can be yourself and have the emotional bandwidth to be on top of your game for everyone else 

Challenges with Disorganization: using a plan to get things done, making chores into routines, and understanding your relationship to things to assist you and your child in organization and productivity

Homework/Responsibility Challenges: supporting your child to get started and follow through on homework, projects, and assignments, how to handle “I’ve got it covered,” or “I don’t have any,” fostering independence, and enabling vs. supporting.

Challenges with Sleep: how to support your child with healthy sleep hygiene, getting to bed on time and staying in bed.

Technology: How to get your child to comply with healthy tech. behavior, consistency with technology, tech. boundaries, and how to enforce them.
