RAISING KIDS TO THEIR FULL POTENTIAL
A 6 SESSION ONLINE COURSE FOR PARENTS
Learn How To Help Your Child Thrive
Facilitated by Ashley Waknine, LMHC
You see so much potential in your child and you want to help them flourish
As a parent, seeing your child become stuck when they have so much potential, is painful. You see them doing things that make life worse for themselves but attempts to intervene either fall on deaf ears or lead to a fight. Their behavior may be testing your patience and impacting your relationship with them.
Some of the common obstacles that parents face when their children are not thriving are:
- Isolating in their room
- Excessive technology (phone, gaming, social media, tv...)
- Disrespect and defiance towards parents
- Disengaging from activities
- Academic challenges: not doing homework, turning in assignments late, increased absences from school, drop in grades
- Resist being parented or accepting guidance from parents
- Not caring about things
- Hyper focused on peer relationships
- Sleep issues
It may feel like you don't understand your child and you just don't know what you can do to help them prosper.
Ashley Waknine has developed a new 6 session intensive course for parents to help them use the power of relationship to help their child reach their full potential.
The course is also designed to educate about common parenting habits that may be getting in the way. We will explore alternative discipline methods that are attachment safe and developmentally friendly.
If you are interested in learning the root causes of your child's behavior, what is keeping them stuck and you want to become the parent your child needs, then this is the course for you.
What the Course Will Include
SESSION ONE
In this session, we’ll take a look at how growth and development is meant to unfold and what can lead to emotional and behavioral problems. We’ll build a framework from which to think about your child’s situation and what is needed to bring them back to health.
SESSION TWO
In this session, we will dive into the importance of a deep emotional connection with your child and learn ways to activate attachment instincts so that you can repair and maintain your connection with your child. We will also look into how to deal with competing attachments.
SESSION THREE
In this session we’ll explore what emotions are and why they are important. We will learn how to foster emotional health and maturity but also learn the problems with emotional development. This session will explain the core emotions that need to be expressed and help you take up your own relationship with emotion.
SESSION FOUR
In this session, we’ll examine what is actually going on when children resist. We will learn to understand when resistance is good and when it is bad and how to minimize the problematic resistance. We will discuss the signs that demonstrate emergence is stuck or not occurring and learn what to do in situations where the child is disengaged, resistant and not emerging.
SESSION FIVE
In this session, we will study defensiveness, aggression and alpha children. We will gain an understanding of what alpha children are and what keeps them stuck in alpha. This session will clarify why it is hard to parent defensive and aggressive children, but also explain why it is important to melt the defenses of those children.
SESSION SIX
The final session will educate on why discipline tactics often backfire with the child that is not thriving. We will learn how to discipline that child, but also how not to discipline them. We will review the story of growth and development and acquire the 'gardening tools' for raising healthy children.

TESTIMONIALS FROM CLIENTS
"
I have been fortunate to have been able to meet Ashley and participate in a recent online course to improve parental/child attachment. I found Ashley's class to be EYE OPENING in better analyzing and adjusting those pre-conceived modalities of problem and solution in favor of much more of a nurturing attachment approach. This switch has been proving beneficial in both my child's behavior, and my response to her challenges. I have been struggling so much to understand my daughter and her motivations- FOR YEARS- and what I wasn't "seeing" was my child- and because of God's grace in pointing me to Ashley, I have, in a short time, come to finally see that there IS potential there to reach my beautiful little girl. And for JUST that opportunity...I can't extend my gratitude enough.

This course, combined with Ashley's direction, was educational, insightful, and filled with guidance that works. Meaning, the changes in our efforts to manage and discipline from a very different mindset, have led to direct changes in our girls' behavior and our family dynamic. You come to understand that creating space for change to take place - to take root and grow - is the most important tool you have. There is so much complexity, especially these days, in raising children, we found ourselves in a spiral without knowing how the heck we got there or how to stop the theft of our daily joy as a family and as individuals. To finally have the right tools to engage and discipline without punishment, to see our family take a corner, to see our daughters want to engage differently because we are engaging differently, has been life changing. Ashley is smart, insightful, compassionate, and invested in helping you help your child grow and reclaim a deeper, healthier, and meaningful relationship - day by day. And, at a cost that is so reasonable - like courses run well beyond this without nearly the return.
