Parents/Guardians
Life cycle changes are a normal part of every family.  For example, when children transition into adolescence, negotiations involving peer groups, self-expression and independence become important opportunities to assist their development into adulthood.  The successful navigation of this stage and other life challenges, at any age, can take patience and understanding, along with key parenting tips and strategies as difficulties arise.

For parents and/or guardians of children and youth with special needs, such as, addictions, ADD/ADHD, autism spectrum, emotional and behavioral disorders, developmental, learning, and mental disabilities, or trauma and stress, Fran determines specific strategies that transmute disruptive behaviors into cooperative, harmonious, relationships. 

She is deeply aware of the importance of essential bonding between parents/guardians and their children by demonstrating responsiveness and nurturance in such a way that children feel safe, connected, and self-directed.  By children having a nurtured, loving foundation, their lives can be on track for fulfillment, joy, health, and prosperity.  When bonding challenges have occurred for any reason, at any age or stage of development, Fran offers specific guidance to help heal and nurture relationships for deeper bonding to occur.
