Testimonials

"When I was first ordered by the court to take parenting classes. I was appalled! I thought "I'm a good parent, I don't need parenting classes!" However, I sucked up my pride and found Anna and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. She's real! She's honest! She customizes it to your life and the things you are experiencing with your child. I didn't think divorce was affecting my three year old but when you're dealing with the courts, the financial burden, the opposing party it takes a toll on YOU and may indirectly affect your child. Anna help me see that and helped me work through it in order to transition my daughter during this difficult time. I truly appreciate all she's done!"

On behalf of the North Brunswick Special Education PTO, we wish to thank you for the valuable information you shared at our meeting tonight.  From the feedback we received, your presentation was a great success.  We appreciate the time you took out of your busy schedule to join us and thank you for sharing your insights and expertise with our attendees. Your willingness to volunteer your time and energy to benefit other parents is greatly appreciated.Again, many thanks for your time and effort.

The seminar was beyond my expectations. The most novel thing I learned was the R.E.V.E.A.L formula and the topics on emotions, crying and children's stress. It transformed the way I see some things and I can say with confidence that I am a different parent. Now that I know how to decode my kids’ behavior and address their needs when possible - I am a relaxed parent. Anna is a very passionate speaker and the way she explains things makes it easy to understand. The seminar was very interactive and each parent received plenty of time for questions and answers. It was great to exchange information and experiences with other parents and surprising to discover that most of us had common issues. I would recommend it to someone who is tired of typical parenting books and notions and desires to explore something fresh.

My husband and I had a hard time letting things go. During the workshop all ideas sounded good and we were excited to go home and give it a try. It was harder than we thought. It took time. Things slowly started improving. We took the entire workshop series and yet, we had difficulties changing ourselves and our old ways.
Through the process, our own childhood issues surfaced, and that was one of the hardest things to overcome. We couldn't move forward. Thanks to Anna's encouragement, free phone follow ups and her dedication to help us-we stayed committed.

Several months later, with the second one on his way, we are better prepared. It was truly transformational.

"I just wanted to say thanks..... You mentioned using the statement, "we are going to leave soon.... are five more minutes enough for you to finish playing?" I use this instead of the few minute warnings we used to talk about. And this statement has been so effective. Sometimes he says no and asks for another amount of minutes and we compromise. And other times he just says OK. Either way...its a much nicer conversation and then we are both in agreement and have our needs met. Anyway, just wanted to say thanks."
