The Parent Child Connection- Dr. Allison Rees
Dr. Allison Rees, counselor/educator, has been teaching parenting classes since 1991 in Victoria and the Pacific Northwest. In Victoria alone, she has facilitated parent education to over 18,000 parents and professionals. She has co-authored two books, Sidestepping the Power Struggle and The Parent Child Connection, and continues to contribute to Island Parent Magazine with her monthly Cut it Out column.
She is the mother of two young adults who have taught her that there is no cookie cutter approach to parenting. With humour and no nonsense, Allison takes the guess work out of parenting in the real world.
Dr. Allison Rees will join us to talk about her upcoming 8 week course running from April 27 – June 8 in Victoria B.C.. The Parent Child Connection will cover various parenting subjects such as difficult behaviour, discipline, communication, nurturing self esteem, and awareness of healthy family boundaries.
