All Children Flourishing
The Nurtured Heart Approach (NHA)
The Nurtured Heart Approach (NHA) is a very pragmatic and easily understood system designed to turn the challenging child around to a new pattern of success. The approach has been found to produce substantial success in helping children flourish at higher than expected levels of achievement. The NHA teaches significant adults how to positively support experiences of success in children while not accidentally energizing their experiences with failure.
NHA offers a means of adult-child communication that results in an increased pattern of positive interactions which promotes a sense of healing and healthier relationships. This workshop is for parents, teachers and other professionals who want to learn how to interact with the challenging child with love, power and sound mind!
This Seminar is for you if…
• You notice that techniques that work with other children continue to make
your situation worse, despite the best of intentions
• You want the intense children you know to flourish
• You want to reserve the use of medications as a last resort, or you want an
approach that will give you the strong probability of shifting the child off
medications
• You want to gain a new perspective on your life and the children / youth in
your life
