Child Adult Relationship Enhancement (CARE)

LCA News and Information

Want to learn effective ways to improve relationships with children in your life?

We are wired to learn within relationships! In this three-hour interactive session, participants who have contact with young children will explore CARE: Child Adult Relationship Enhancement. CARE uses the three P principles (Praise, Paraphrase, and Point-Out Behavior) to connect children with adults in their lives. CARE teaches effective positive commands and strategies to redirect problematic behaviors. CARE includes an evidenced-based education component to increase understanding of behaviors associated with trauma .

Please join us for this valuable training!

Our counselor wanted to meet our entire family to find out how to better help our son.  She offered lots of suggestions and things to help us in the long term.

I had a person to talk with about my problems and my problems are getting better.

She's thinking through things with me instead of just giving directions.  It shows that she cares.

Greatly appreciate having the option of Christian Counseling and being able to filter issues through that lens!
