Parent Seminars
Knowledge is power. Too much knowledge can be overpowering.
You are parents in the digital age. You have vast stores of information, experiences and opinions literally at your fingertips. It can be a wonderful resource to enable you to best help your child. Too often, however, the amount of different approaches, available therapies and conflicting opinions can leave you with a headache. How do you filter the information? How do you make wise decisions?
Our parent seminars grew out of the questions and uncertainties we heard time and again from concerned, involved parents like you. Our goal is to give you the critical knowledge you need to understand what’s going on with your child and make informed decisions.
Registration for live seminars is limited, so that you will be able to ask questions at the end. It’s so important to us that you come out of a seminar with more clarity about your individual child, and not just "more" information.
