Is your child:
  • Concerned about separation, or the threat of separation from you? 
  • Fearful, sad, lonely, or distracted?
  • No longer enjoying the activities they once enjoyed?
  • Unable to develop friendships?
  • The frequent target of harmful or intimidating behaviour from others?
  • Hitting, biting or harming others?
  • Unable to control their temper?  
  • Selecting not to speak in certain situations?
Are you, as a parent:
  • Feeling frustrated and confused by your child’s behaviour? 
  • Unsure about how you can help your child?
  • Wondering whether your child’s behaviour will ever improve?
  • Tired of getting advice and suggestions from well-meaning friends and teachers?
  • Discouraged after receiving negative feedback from teachers or other adults?
  • Feeling alienated from other parents and sad that your child never receives a play date or party invitation?
