Wellness Groups
When facing difficult live events or even day to day stressors, it can be so helpful to know we are not alone. Wellness groups connect people in similar circumstances and allow for connection on a variety of topics. Most groups also have a skills-based component while facilitating discussion among peers.
Parent Coaching
If you prefer one-on-one assistance for your parenting or child behavior problem, I am also available for in-home parent coaching. With this service, I come to your home to observe parent-child interactions, offer feedback and teach child management/parenting skills. The approach I use in this, and all services provided by Pinnacle Wellness, is strength-based. This means that I will focus on what you are doing well and build from there to help improve the areas of difficulty you are experiencing.
Parenting Workshops
For many people, parenting is the most difficult thing they will ever do. While it can also be the most rewarding, dealing with challenging behaviors often keeps the reward from being fully realized. Pinnacle Wellness offers workshops that teach parenting skills to increase positive behaviors and decrease negative behaviors in children. All skills reviewed in workshops have been shown to be effective through scientific research.
Workshops help adults improve relationships with their children, assist adults in getting children and adolescents to do what they’re instructed to do and prevent children and adolescents from acting out and other problem behaviors.
Workshops are for parents of children and adolescents of all ages and are conducted in a 3 set series. Parenting workshops often take place at the Pinnacle Therapeutic Office, but may also be conducted at a school, daycare, business or home if there is interest in doing so.
