BECOME MAD TO GLAD™ CERTIFIED! OUR NEXT TRAINING STARTS MARCH 8, 2024
Intense kids are more – more emotional, more sensitive, more energetic, more focused, more excitable, more distracted, more controlling, more defiant, more stimulated, more overwhelmed, more strong-willed – than other kids.
But when you work with intense kids and their families, it means your work is doubly challenging. You’ve got to know what works with kids… and you need to sensitively guide parents through a different approach, too!
You Love Kids. You Want Concrete Tools to Talk to Parents.
Become a Confident Guide & Fulfill Your Purpose!
We offer two comprehensive skills training and certificate programs thoughtfully designed for professionals who want to guide parents through their own positive behavior change using the Mad to Glad™ format and curriculum.
Whichever path you choose, you’ll learn how to get parents the positive tools and behavior strategies that work best for their kids.
Our trainings are specifically designed for professionals working with families of emotionally intense kids, including those with Anxiety, Sensory Processing Disorder, ADHD, Autism, Giftedness, or Oppositional Defiant Disorder. We prioritize a trauma-informed approach.
There are two ways we can work together…
Guide a group of parents or work one-on-one.
