Kids and spouses don’t come with
instructions!
We all have been there.
Wondering how things got so hard.
Everyone seems to have their own opinions on what is the best way to raise a family or have a fairytale marriage. We talk with friends and colleagues only to feel more alone or like no one really understands what is happening in our family.
Or we don’t talk to anyone hoping that if we can pretend that everything is fine long enough, it will just fix itself.
You are not alone.
All of us need help at some point; not all of us are willing to ask for it.
It takes Courage to choose Hope over
Fear
~Mark Zuckerburg
Rachel is loved by everyone she meets.
Her teacher says that Rachel is always willing to help other students, and her soccer coach raves about her teamwork. So why does Rachel need counseling?
Rachel comes home like a tornado; unpredictable
and chaotic.
So much so that her parents are always walking on eggshells. Rachel is 7 years old and in the 2nd grade. Her parents are at a loss: “We must be the problem if she is fine with everyone else.”
Feelings of self-doubt and worry creep into their minds. “What are we doing wrong?”
A full year passes with this problem with Rachel
at home.
In fact, it just continues to get worse. Rachel refuses to sleep in her own bed, and she will hit anyone in her path when she is upset. Her parents finally decided that this was more than they could handle on their own.
“We need help.”
The first consultation was difficult for Rachel’s parents. To have to speak about their little girl’s anger to a complete stranger… “What if the therapist thinks we are just terrible parents?” “What if the therapist can’t help?”
After just a few minutes, Rachel’s parents’ fears slipped away, and a new hope started to grow.
The therapist was warm, caring, non-judgmental and encouraging. She told Rachel’s parents that she hears similar stories frequently, and most children that she works with feel much better after 6-8 months of counseling.
Rachel’s parents started the counseling process immediately after the free consultation.
Within the first month, they started to see positive changes in their daughter. After eight months, harmony and joy re-entered their home, and Rachel was thriving at school and at home.
A Family in Harmony will Prosper in Everything.
