Βοηθάμε τους γονείς να βρουν λύση σε οτιδήποτε τους απασχολεί με το παιδί τους, από 0 έως 18 ετών, προσωποποιημένα στην οικογένειά τους, με βαθιά γνώση γύρω από τη διαπαιδαγώγηση και βασισμένοι στις τελευταίες επιστημονικές εξελίξεις.

Ειδικευόμαστε στην Συμβουλευτική Γονέων που πιστεύουμε ότι αποτελεί το πρώτο βήμα στην αντιμετώπιση οποιουδήποτε ζητήματος στην οικογένεια. Και δεν μένουμε στη θεωρία. Μοιραζόμαστε πρακτικούς τρόπους και δοκιμασμένες τακτικές που μπορούν οι γονείς να υιοθετήσουν για να δουν πολύ γρήγορα τις αλλαγές που θέλουν στην οικογένειά τους.

Ζητήματα όπως το άγχος και η επιθετικότητα, η αποτελεσματική οριοθέτηση, ο ύπνος, το φαγητό και οι φυσικές ανάγκες, η προσκόλληση, η συνεργασία των γονέων στη διαπαιδαγώγηση, αλλά και ζητήματα γύρω από τη χρήση οθονών, την κοινωνικοποίηση, το σχολείο και τις σχολικές επιδόσεις, τον σχολικό εκφοβισμό, οικογενειακές κρίσεις, κ.ά., βρίσκονται στο επίκεντρο της δουλειάς μας.

Μέσα από τη συνεργασία μας, οι γονείς μαθαίνουν τη φιλοσοφία και τη λογική πίσω από τη Θετική Διαπαιδαγώγηση, τον ενδεδειγμένο πλέον τρόπο καθοδήγησης των παιδιών, χωρίς συμβατικές μεθόδους όπως η τιμωρία, οι φωνές, οι απειλές, οι δωροδοκίες, κ.ά. Οι γονείς εξοικειώνονται σταδιακά με τη νέα προσέγγιση, μαθαίνουν πρακτικούς τρόπους για το πώς μπορούν να υποστηρίξουν το παιδί τους σε κάθε πρόκληση που αντιμετωπίζει, χτίζουν μαζί του μία ζεστή, υποστηρικτική σχέση, και βλέπουν το κλίμα στην οικογένειά τους να μεταμορφώνεται.

Η Συμβουλευτική Γονέων στο Parenting.Today δεν μένει στη θεωρία. Εστιάζει στην πράξη, δίνοντας στους γονείς συγκεκριμένα εργαλεία και πρακτικές εφαρμογές επιστημονικά τεκμηριωμένες, που αποσκοπούν στην βέλτιστη υποστήριξη των παιδιών καθώς μεγαλώνουν. Η συμβουλευτική γίνεται από εξειδικευμένους συμβούλους γονέων σε ιδιωτικές διαδικτυακές συναντήσεις των 50 λεπτών.

Ξεκινήστε ακόμα και αυθημερόν, επιλέγοντας την ώρα που σάς εξυπηρετεί!

1.Διαμορφώνει ένα κλίμα αμοιβαίου σεβασμού στην οικογένεια.
