A Fresh Start: A Clients Story
“When the things that have happened to you become the things you are doing, there is a problem. I used to say I would roll over dead before I became “her”, but I caught myself in the middle of a whirlwind of anger hollering at my children about laundry. I used to stare at myself in the mirror and ask “who am I?” I would try to strip away all the fake, the pain and the hell – and ask myself who am I really? Why am I so lost?

Supplying Healthy Alternatives for Personal Empowerment
S.H.A.P.E. combines positive discipline techniques with standard behavior modification based on the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis. ABA is a scientifically based approach in effectively dealing with behavior management. Parents struggling with behaviors such as power, revenge, attention seeking and avoidance will find this class helpful.
Parents will learn:
1) How to recognize the reason behind the various behaviors
2.) How to respond to the negative behavior in order to reduce future occurrences
4.) How to teach their children the responses they desire
The ultimate goal of this class is to empower both parents and children in strengthening the parent-child relationship, in order to help the family unit flourish as a whole.
Next session starts Tuesday, January 10th, 2012! Call 361-888-6041 to register.
