Parent Like A Psychologist

When your children don’t fit the mould, it can cause a lot of friction unless the adults in their lives can be flexible.

Moulding your child’s environment and skills. I’ve got the evidence based strategies, but parents are the change makers – so let’s do this together. Come on in!
