Requirements

• Come to class with an open mind, ready to learn practical ways to change the paradigm within their Young Adult. My intention is to provide information from my experience in the field of Psychology and Counseling to help parents who are not sure what to do next. This is a blame-free zone where parents can ask honest questions and receive the feedback that they are looking for. Each parent will leave with plans, and the ability to connect to local resources, which will empower and embolden them.
