New Parenting Classes Starting Soon!

[David Tolin]

The Institute of Living's Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy/
Anxiety Disorders Center is pleased to announce two new 4-week
parenting classes, starting soon:

Strategies for Parenting Anxious Children: A new class offered to
parents of anxious or sensitive children. The instructor, a licensed
child psychologist, will teach parents how to respond to the unique
needs of anxious or sensitive children. Parents will learn how to
appropriately balance nurturing, encouraging, and setting limits with
their children. Parents will be assisted in developing an
individualized behavior plan for their children, and to practice
applying their strategies in class, with immediate instructor
feedback. Classes will be held weekly for four weeks, followed by a
final class one month later.

Strategies for Parenting Strong Willed Children: This class is
designed for parents of strong willed children, who may be having
difficulty following directions at home or controlling their anger.
The instructor, a licensed child psychologist, will teach parents
strategies to improve their child’s behavior, including developing an
individualized behavior plan. Parents will have the opportunity to
practice applying their strategies in class, with immediate instructor
feedback. Classes will be held weekly for four weeks, followed by a
final class one month later.

Hi David,

Sounds intriguing.  Is it OK if I forward this to some Hartt School Suzuki teachers? - I know this is a frequent topic of discussion (and some of my younger Suzuki student peers could use this approach).

Thanks,

Karen
