Positive Solutions to Challenging Behaviors Virtual Training- November 10, 2022

Do you feel like you are at your wits end with your child’s behaviors? Have you tried all the punishments and rewards but feel they just aren’t working? You are not alone! So often we find ourselves as parents stuck between trying to be supportive of children’s
emotions, while also trying to effectively discipline their behaviors—Yet too often get stuck in a power struggle and the behaviors and meltdowns just don’t stop! Join Chelsea Gould, Licensed Educational Psychologist and mother of a “strong willed child” to learn about Positive Solutions to help support your child’s emotions, while also setting limits and reinforcing the good behaviors you want to see more of.  Please open the link and register.
