Teens - Becoming My Personal Best

Family Empowerment & Mediation Services teen workshops provide the participants an opportunity to look at their behavior to see the choices they make cause negative or positive consequences, and a process for changing the negative behaviors they wish to improve on while reinforcing positive choices they are presently making.

The Empowered Parent

The Parenting workshops build on personal and family strengths and leads adults through an exploration of themselves and the dynamics of interrelationships. Two theories are basic for the Empowered Parent workshops. Lifespan development theory suggests that the potential for change is ever-present: choices can be made at any point along the developmental continuum. Family system theory explores the complex nature of individuals effecting institutions, as these same institutions are affecting the life experiences of the individuals.
