• The Nurtured Heart® Approach is a POSITIVE, CONNECTING RELATIONSHIP MODEL where you & your children thrive.

• It inspires transformative change in all children, adolescents & adults, especially for those diagnosed with ADHD, learning disabilities, ASD, anxiety, bi-polar & attachment issues.

As a parent, you may be frustrated by the poor results you experience from correcting, lecturing, initiating time-outs, or removing privileges. These traditional approaches to discipline rarely work with children who have behavioral disorders.

• Tired of the stress & drama associated with tantrums, defiant, oppositional behaviour?
• Wanting to stop the constant negativity?
• Desiring to restore love, respect, hope & peace to your home?
• Realizing the parenting method you are using is not working?
• Needing parenting or classroom management skills that actually change things for the better permanently?

Are You Ready for a Shift?

The Nurtured Heart Approach® (NHA) Is more than just a parenting or educator behaviour management strategy. It is a philosophy for creating healthy relationships with the people in your life. Originally created by Howard Glasser in 1992, NHA is being successfully implemented through families, classrooms, foster care, health care professionals, social workers & criminal justice organizations that are seeking successful, early intervention techniques. 

NHA teaches parents & educators how to shift their attention, energy and relationship to create inner wealth while transforming behavior using 3 stands:

• Absolutely NO! De-Energize Negativity – this is where a parent makes a conscious decision to no longer reward misbehaviour with large doses of time, attention, or emotion.
• Absolutely YES! Energize Success – which means to recognize and honour children when they are doing well. Use these times as teachable moments.
• Absolutely CLEAR! Set Strict Limits and Consequences – parents instill trust and confidence in their child by remaining consistent and holding them accountable.
