Because Creative Family Counseling values experiential learning, in-services are typically taught in a fun, collaborative manner where participants get to “try on” the various tools being taught, as so much of learning is in the “doing.”
Our Training & Expertise
The Creative Family Counseling Team draws heavily from their background as both mental health therapists and as Certified Positive Discipline Educators. Positive Discipline is an evidence-based philosophy and approach to working with and raising children, which can be applied in the home, childcare, and school settings. The Positive Discipline curriculum fits well with educational approaches and philosophies which are skill based and developmentally informed.
Here’s our simple process for scheduling an in-service for your school, administration, or organization:
- Step 1: Send an inquiry via email to [email protected].
- Step 2: Receive a customized, comprehensive in-service tailored to your needs.
- Step 3: Gain access to invaluable information and ready-for-action strategies.
We look forward to sharing our knowledge and expertise with you!
