I’m offering the Helping Children with Loss program—an opportunity to learn how to support children or minors in your care as they face life’s emotional challenges. It is an educational program  designed to equip parents, teachers, mentors, counselors with the very best tools to help children effectively deal with their painful emotions, in whatever loss they're facing.

Did you know?
 
Most parents want to do whatever they can to protect their children from painful moments and events that my touch their lives. In trying to “protect” them however, we often do not realize that we are inadvertently passing on to them the same bits of “misinformation” on how to deal with grief that we learned as children.
  • Children can become more resilient—and happier—when they’re given the right emotional tools. 
  • This program strengthens your emotional connection with your child, especially in times of challenge or loss.
  • Children suffer emotional pain not only from major losses but also when hopes, dreams and expectations go unmet—and well-meaning adults may unknowingly respond in unhelpful ways.
  • Many of the common responses we’ve learned about loss are not actually helpful or healthy. The problem is that grief is emotional, not logical.
  •  Regardless of their age, what you’ll learn in this program will help children process emotional experiences in healthier ways potentially preventing them from turning to harmful coping strategies later in life. 
  • Now you can learn tools that will not only help them today, but for the rest of their lives as well.
