Happy kids make parenting easier.

Being a mom isn’t easy.
Imagine raising happy kids. Imagine parenting being easier.
I get it. Above all, I wanted my son to be a happy kid. As a parent, raising a child with diverse learning abilities, and additionally, trying to find a way through his social fears and ADHD, was tough. I’m Deborah Woods, National Board-Certified Counselor, and I understand the struggles.
The big unhappy feelings, disrespectful outbursts, tears, and tantrums were overwhelming. Sadly, I made mistakes along the way. However, thankfully, over time, things changed.
Fast forward to today, my son has grown into a happy man. In the beginning, we worked to build a nurturing home that improved his happiness and resilience. Then, we put together a family way of life that promoted healthy social chats, experiences, and outings, which proved helpful in overcoming his anxiety. Later, discovering his unique learning style was a real turning point for him that led to his love of learning.
At the same time, we found useful ways to support his independence despite his ADHD. Along this journey, I learned to stand up for him. Then finally, the icing on the cake, by welcoming his differences and strengths, we found reasons to celebrate our joy as a family.
