Why can’t I talk with my son/daughter? Does it seem like every time you say something to your child they become angry, don’t answer or walk away. Does a simply question lead to a huge out of control argument. Does their behavior include yelling, screaming, foot stomping, door slamming episodes. Do you feel like you are walking on eggshells or refuse to be bullied in your relationship with your child?

Why is my son/daughter so angry? Does your child have temper tantrums? Do they kick, scream, throw toys, bite or hit others due to frustration or misunderstandings. Is your child behavior insubordinate? Do they say inappropriate things to teachers, adults or others in a role of authority? Have they been in physical fights with peers? Are you tired of looking for reasons for their irrational, explosive behavior.

Why is he/she doing so badly in school? Do you think your child just doesn’t care about doing well in school? Do they forget to bring home their books or assignments? Do they lose the important papers you were supposed to sign? Are you tired of hearing from the teachers that your child behavior is terrible. Do they tell you he/she just doesn’t pay attention, or is goofing off all the time? Are you frustrated because they never seem to listen.

Why does he/she not want to be around anyone? Is your child behavior sad or withdrawn? Does he/she isolate from the family, sit in their room or just appear distant. Does he/she cry for no reason? Do you wonder why doesn’t he/she have any friends? Do you wonder why he/she doesn’t want to go out or do anything? Why does he/she always want to be alone?

Are you scared and worried if you don’t get help for your child that their future will be a disaster. Do you worry that their behavior is going to get them expelled from school or in trouble with the police. Are you worried that they will have no future? Do you just want to have a healthy, helping relationship with your child but don’t how. Do you feel like no-one cares, can help or that you have tried everything…

Don’t Give Up. Don’t think there is no hope for your child and your family.

I assure you that there is relief from the anguish you feel about your child. There are proven methods to help your child and family achieve positive relationships and effective communication. You are your child’s most reliable resource for a healthy, happy development leading to a positive productive future. No one knows your child better than you. And no one has a bigger effect on who he/she is and who he/she will become. If you give up on your child who is left to care? Investing in the time to help your child learn these proven methods and how to apply them is never futile. Your efforts will change your family’s relationships and your child’s behavior will become more positive and productive.

I have helped many families change their circumstances from chaos to nurturing relationships.

You can help your child make a positive difference in your family dynamic. I understand how you feel that this sounds impossible. I understand that you feel alone that you feel overwhelmed or that you have tried everything. I understand you feel like no one hears your concerns or that they are tired of listening but be certain that you are not the only family who has struggles with child emotional/behavioral problems. Many families have encountered difficult stages during their child’s development. I guarantee you are your child’s greatest resource from distress. You can have a loving caring relationship with your child without sacrificing your happiness, sanity or health. To make that difference all you need to do is practice and have access to tools that help increase non-judgmental communication and define nurturing healthy family roles and relationships. You can have peace of mind knowing that you are in control of being a good parent and helping your child grow into a responsible, reliable, caring adult.

Child Therapy Services available.

I have worked with families that through their struggle have found a greater understanding and closer relationship with their child. They have discovered their own individual strength and the strength within their family. They have developed a clear sense of boundaries and ways to communicate expectations without judgment. They have increased appreciation and respect from their child. They have discovered the beauty of unconditional love for their child and themselves. Please don’t waste anymore time on the pain and strife of non-productive, heart wrenching arguments that cause an ever-growing wedge in one of the most precious relationships you have.
