Happy kids in 30 minutes
Being a mother isn’t easy.
Maybe you know this story, of a mom who was struggling.
She was caring. Generous. Wanting to do right by her kids.
Still, no matter how hard she tried to reach them, to get them to listen and make good choices, to have a close and loving relationship,
Nothing seemed to work.
It was wearing on her.
She was tired of the arguments, and tired of watching her child struggle. She was at her wits end. She didn’t know what else to do.
She desperately wanted to be a good mom.
She was starting to secretly hate being a mom, and felt guilty for even thinking it… because, though she loves her kids, she’s overwhelmed.
It isn’t easy.
Telling someone how hard it is can be especially difficult, especially if that someone hasn’t lived through similar challenges. Talking to someone who’s been there makes it a little bit easier.
Someone who knows that struggling doesn’t make a mom a bad mom… it makes her a caring mom. Someone who sees how bravely she goes on, day after day, looking for answers.
I know, because I was that mom. Until I discovered that it’s possible to take the struggle out of being a mom.
There is a solution that works.
helping moms empower kids
Hi. I’m Deborah Woods,
National Board-Certified Counselor.
I struggled with being a mom raising a special needs child.
Today, he’s all grown up and you’d never guess he had special needs as a child. I couldn’t be more proud of him. We both made it through those hard days and nights.
I was fortunate that being a professional counselor, working with kids and parents in my work life, being surrounded by a team of helping professionals, put me in the position of having access to a wide variety of experts to help me. I had to sift through a lot of advice to find what worked.
I’ve been licensed as a professional counselor in Missouri since 1988. I hold degrees in psychology and counseling. I’ve studied child development, child psychopathology and behavior. In the last 3 decades, I’ve helped hundreds of parents and kids. I’ve spent more than 15,000 hours talking and playing with kids and teens. Along the way, I gathered valuable skills and lessons that I’m honored to share with my clients.
I discovered a unique system of working with kids that made a world of difference.
