Sharing Strengths -- It's what families do. We recognize, understand, appreciate, and increase our strengths, and the strengths of other family members. Because we continue to grow, we are constantly faced with new situations and challenges as families. We can learn skills, discover new insights, and gain support from others through family life education.
My programs are based on respect for individuals and individual family structures.
Each person and
each family is unique and will find their own best answers to their challenges
and their own best ways to express their joys.
Family life
education can: Increase your understanding of healthy
growth and behavior.
Refine your skill
at positive and cooperative interactions with all family members.
Help you Share your Strengths!
Esther Schiedel, MS CFLE
It’s easier and it’s harder. It can be confusing now that your child
is older. Explore those changes and challenges and learn strategies for
determining when you support, when you let go, and when you step in.
