Talk with me today!

Our keynotes feature two unique offerings that you'll find nowhere else:

Our Own Framework of Emotional Support

Our “Four C’s” Model

These “C’s” are basic human needs that are essential for children’s – and adults’ – healthy emotional development and well-being.

A Child's Perspective of Her Own Challenging Behavior

Hear from an articulate and expressive young adult who has had mental health special needs since early childhood.

Your attendees will gain great insight into children’s behaviors, especially challenging ones.

We’d be delighted to tell you more – much more, if you’re interested!

We can also offer a Christian perspective!

For Christian programs and conferences, we offer a Christ-centered approach in all our keynotes, conference sessions, child care trainings and children’s presentations.
 
Attendees will gain knowledge and skills that are based on the latest research and that promote Christian values as well!

Talk with us to learn more.

We’d love the opportunity to share our unique offerings within our faith!
