Description
Do you have a toddler or child aged 1-10 years old who is struggling with anxiety, ADHD or acting out? Would you identify your child as "strong-willed"? Or maybe your child is a constant worrier and needs constant attention.
Now imagine your child relaxed and happily listening for the first time and imagine strangers noticing your child's calm and sweet behavior?
As an official city instructor of Rancho Cucamonga, Mending Hearts Family Counseling Center offers workshops to help you reach this goal and manage difficult child behaviors such as:
- Tantrums
- Whining
- Constant worrying
- Screaming and cursing
- Separation anxiety
- Hitting or kicking
- Back talk
- Clinginess
- Biting
- Crying
- Property destruction
- Refusal to go to bed
- Pre-school expulsion
- Easily frustrated
- Difficulty controlling anger or other strong emotions
Our workshops are fun, interactive and provide an atmosphere of mutual support. You'll meet with other parents who are experiencing similar ups and downs and gain valuable skills from our child behavior expert who is also a licensed therapist and who personally knows the struggle of parenting a child with significant behavioral challenges.
Offered in an educational format, our workshops are based on the principles from Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT). PCIT is a family treatment researched and developed through UC Davis Children's Hospital and backed by hundreds of studies and 40 years of research.
A recent study shows PCIT to be more effective than stimulant medication for treating disruptive behaviors. While we don't provide therapy at the workshops, we will teach the principles of PCIT in an educational format.
Adoptive/foster families can especially benefit! All our services are LGBTQ+ Affirmative. We look forward to seeing you there!
