Parent/Family Mentoring & Coaching
The definition and role of family has evolved and changed significantly in the past generation. No matter how you define your family, most people agree that an emotionally healthy family can be a great source of love and support.
Not all families are so fortunate. The love and support that occurs in a well-functioning family can often be replaced by hurtful words and actions, conflict, chaos, and hostility. If you’re finding it hard to adapt or to communicate about your experiences with your family, then the help of a caring professional can help guide you into more effective ways of dealing with:
- Parent/Child Conflict
- Poor Communication
- Sibling Conflict
- Grief and Loss
- Single Parenting
- Sexuality Issues
- Drugs and Alcohol
- Divorce
- Abuse
- Blended Family
