"Secure Babies Strong Children Successful Adults"
Consultation and Mentoring
Greetings! As your consultant, mentor, counselor or coach, I won’t tell you what to do. I’ll share proven principles and strategies with you and discuss how to apply them. I'll tell you about the benefits of warm, attuned, responsive and relationship-oriented parenting. I’ll act as a sounding board, and share my perspective, thoughts and feelings. But ultimately you are the only one who will know what feels right for your own particular family; you’re the only one who can decide what you think will work in your own individual situation.Contact Me
You might want to purchase only a single session at first, to make sure you feel comfortable with me before buying a package
The packages (of 6 or 12 sessions) give a better per-hour rate than single sessions, and I additionally recommend them so that you won't have to struggle to make a decision about whether you really "need" to talk to me every time you have a concern. Many of us tend to think we have to have a "really good reason" to reach out for support or information. I believe that you, as a parent, deserve at least an hour or so a week in which you can receive support and information about the vital job of parenting and dealing with particular needs and situations.
Comments made by mothers in written evaluations/statements after consultations or a series of parenting classes:
"Maureen is very warm, supportive and understanding."
"She had a very calming and relaxing voice and demeanor...not judgmental...great at offering suggestions..."
"Thank you so much; we really enjoyed the class."
"Maureen has many excellent qualities. Thanks to her suggestions, my children and I have been changing, little by little – especially my 11-year-old son. I’m very grateful to Maureen for the knowledge she has shared with us. I’m very satisfied with the insights and support she’s given me."
