Frequently Asked Questions:
I am having problems with my child. Where should I start?
Visit our Resource page, which features a list of our favorite resources for families seeking guidance. You may also find Transforming the Difficult Child a great written resource. We also have our 4+ hour Nurtured Heart Approach® Fundamentals: Transforming ADHD and other Challenging Behavior.
Can you refer me to a counselor/coach or therapist you have trained?
We do not provide referrals, however, you can join our Private (anyone can join) Facebook group and make a post. Or you can visit our Find A Trainer page that lists all currently certified trainers open to new clients. We suggest that you begin the process of learning by reading either Transforming the Difficult Child or Transforming the Intense Child Workbook or watching our 4+ hour Nurtured Heart Approach® Fundamentals: Transforming ADHD and other Challenging Behavior online self-paced course.
The most cost-effective way is to begin unfolding the approach on your own before reaching out for a coach, so you already have direct experience in using the Nurtured Heart Approach.
May I schedule a consultation with one of your staff members?
Although we wish we could individually consult with every family who contacts us, we are primarily a learning platform and a research institute and are unable to provide clinical services. Please use our website as a starting place to learn about the Nurtured Heart Approach.
