Coaching and Counselling Service

Joan-Claire has established a coaching and counselling service.

This is for parents who wish to learn Protective Behaviours in a one on one situation (plus small groups upon request). This is where individual concerns can be addressed and lesson plans developed, strategies discussed and skill rehearsal explored. Then transferred to everyday life situations.

This service is for parents who are concerned about their child's safety before or as intervention when an incident has occurred relating to abuse or school violence such as bullying.

A parents willingness to be part of the protective process is essential as the coach can only be there once a week, whilst ' you' as the parent in are the guardian of your child's health and wellbeing 24hrs a day. It is a partnership that the coach walks with you in developing you and your child's skills in keeping safe.

Individual sessions with your child are also available but know that as a parent and teacher you are your child's best resource and the role of coach is to assist you to develop your skills and expand your already good parenting. Supervision sessions for Professionals in the implementation process of the Protective Behaviours Program are also available; please call to discuss fees and options.
