What Isn't Working for You?

  1. You try to 'explain' reasons or rules to your child only to have your child continue to act out or ramp up his or her demands.
  2. Your child calls you names when he can't have his way.
  3. Your child insists that you must stop what you are doing NOW and drive her somewhere to purchase a desired item.
  4. Your child ignores the routine and engages in delay tactics which makes him or her late to school or other planned activities.
  5. You awaken frequently with a sense of anxiety, wondering what new kind of drama your child will create that day.
  6. You tend to waver in your discipline techniques if you believe that you are being 'too hard' on your child and/or if you tend to believe that he or she 'cannot help' how they are wired, therefore, they require more: more time, more tolerance, more leeway. --To cite but a few general examples.

If you are still reading, it is highly likely that you have read a mountain of books, followed all kinds of advice, and yet you still wonder if you will ever find anything that will bring you a sense of confidence as you go about establishing a safe structure and routine for your child, who is presently testing you beyond endurance.

Do you doubt that you can acquire the basic techniques for changing the interaction between you and your child by mastering parenting techniques in 4 hours? You can.

Have you spent so much money on treatment, prescriptions, and other programs designed to help you and your child manage his or her learning disabilities or AD/HD that you can't imagine finding the funds for another program? This program is affordable, payment options are available, and a lot of people find themselves in this situation, so don't let this stop you from exploring the options for payment. Also: Please checkout Schwablearning.org to find out about possible tax deductions for the expenses you have incurred on behalf of your child. It costs you nothing to call the Centre and find out what is available to you.

What makes the Georgia Centre's approach so special and different from the other things I have tried that did not help? The founder's lived experience, coupled with working with a diverse group of client's dealing with a wide variety of biologically driven behaviors and/or willful behavior, resulting in very stressful family and interpersonal relationships. While the issues and stressors for each family is unique, experience, education, and training do make a difference in helping clients acquire new strategies that work more effectively.

The Centre's founder has lived the life where ADD coupled with 'high energy' and a large streak of willfulness in childhood taught her in ways that were deeply significant what works and what doesn't when it comes to adults responding to challenging behavior. Further, as a mother and grandmother deeply familiar with rambunctious behavior coupled with other issues, Brenda has used her 'lived experience' and fused it with her graduate education to develop solutions unique to each client family. She has a dual perspective: the frustrated child's view and the anxious parent's one, too.
