Family Transitions is offered in a group with other parents, or one-on-one with one of our trained facilitators. We will discuss new ideas, techniques and strategies to help you through the day-to-day dramas and ongoing trauma of transitioning through separation or divorce. These ideas can help you cope with stress, anger and change, resolve conflict, and communicate better with your ex.

Stepping Stones is based on Triple P’s positive parenting strategies. It helps you manage problem behaviour and developmental issues common in children with disability. It also helps encourage behaviour you like, cope with stress, develop a close relationship with your child and teach your child new skills. You choose the type of Stepping Stones help based on your own needs.

Fear-Less isn’t about eliminating fear altogether – sometimes, fear protects us. Instead, it’s about giving your family a toolbox of strategies, skills, and knowledge to manage anxious feelings and stop unnecessary worrying.
