While mental health issues must be treated by licensed professionals, coaching also provides a means of teaching and supporting children from dysfunctional families. Many coaching strategies focus on improving communication, setting goals, problem solving and guiding imagery that benefit children who experience dysfunctional family life. Coaching empowers, educates and encourages children to understand their potential and make step-wise movements to learn skills, improve function and aspire to new heights. This workshop will address the dysfunctional family and related literature: conditional parenting (Edward L. Deci), disciplinary style, perfectionism, anxiety-generating styles, conflict-based approaches, dismissive and permissive parenting styles. Coaching techniques that support children with particular types of dysfunctional parenting styles are described. (This is part of the Coaching Children and Teens Certificate Program, but you do not need to enroll in the program to take this workshop.)
Instructor: Anita Remig, Ed.D., has worked with children and families for over 30 years. She gives seminars on ADHD, PDD, LD, and the human brain throughout the country.
