WHERE DO YOU START…

1. Think about which areas you need support in:

1. Behaviour that you don’t understand, and you don’t know how to manage.

2. Wanting to know what your child is thinking and feeling.

3. Sleep.

4. Challenges in your child’s eating and mealtimes.

5. Toilet training.

6. Questions around the importance of play and downtime.

7. Wanting to advance your child’s skills, but don’t know what to do or how.

8. Wanting to make positive changes to your home environment/climate.

2. Free consultation

Connect with me and let’s book a free consultation session to discuss what you are going through – your needs, what your child needs, how you are feeling, and where you want to go.

We will discuss if you need support in multiple areas or just one and I will design a tailored family support program.

      • If you want a total program for your child inclusive of all 8 areas, this can be arranged at a discounted price.
      • Your beginning program can change throughout your time with ACTVoices to meet your child’s and your own changing needs.

3. Snapshot of what a session/in-home visit looks like:

1. BEHAVIOUR THAT YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND, AND YOU DON’T KNOW HOW TO MANAGE

          • You will discuss your child’s behaviours; what you are doing and how you are feeling; and any problems or concerns you may have.
          • You will share with me what type of behaviour you want to see from your child. For example, more gentle and caring behaviour, easily make friendships and engage in play, wider interest and engagement in play, more confident, higher self-esteem.
          • We will discuss the reasons behind the behaviours you are concerned about and discuss various strategies that you could use.
          • We will discuss what you could try, add or change in your response to your child’s behaviour and to address your concerns.
          • I will model various strategies. We will then reflect on the progress of your child’s behaviour and discuss where to go from there.


5. TOILET TRAINING

          • We will discuss what you have tried, your child’s behaviours and attitudes towards toilet training.
          • You will share your feelings about toilet training. For example, anxiety and frustrations.
          • You will share with me what you want for your child’s toilet training.
          • We will discuss the various strategies that you can use to make toilet training an ease, rather than a frustration, for you and your child.
          • I will share ideas about how to address the difficulties your child may be experiencing while toilet training.
          • We will discuss what you could try, add or change during toilet training and to address your concerns.
          • I will model various strategies. We will then reflect on the progress of your child and discuss where to go from there.

4. Choose which type of support you want

Sessions (from 1 to 5 hours):

          • We discuss strategies to use. You try them, then we reflect and discuss changes together.
          • Face-to-face (in-home or a mutually agreed place), virtual (zoom), or phone.
          • Duration can be from 1 hour to 5 hours, as many sessions as you need.
          • Your beginning program can change throughout your time with ACTVoices to meet your child’s and your own changing needs.
          • Price: If you want 1-hour sessions (compared to 5 hours) then we will tailor the price for you.
          • Minimum price $12 per session, maximum $45. But this can be tailored to your needs.
          • No contracts, cancel anytime.

In-home visit (from 1 to 8 hours):

          • I work alongside you and your child getting to know the both of you, strategising and modelling various ways to address your problems, questions and concerns.
          • You will be required to stay during the visit as this will be a time to both discuss, practice and reflect.
          • Duration can be one day, over a number of days/weeks/months – whatever you need.
          • Your beginning program can change throughout your time with ACTVoices to meet your child’s and your own changing needs.
          • Price: If you want 1-hour in-home support (compared to 8 hours) then we will tailor the price for you.
          • Minimum price $18 per visit, maximum $100. But this can be tailored to your needs.
          • No contracts, cancel anytime.

5. Remember, there is inclusive support for your mental health.

It’s not just about managing these times for your children, it’s also about you. So, inclusive to your tailored family support program, there is support for you and your well-being. Although it might seem that talking and listening is not significant, at ACTVoices, the ‘VOICES’ is what drives the success for families and children.

I provide one-on-one support on effective practices, but most importantly I am a sounding board for reflection and self-growth for you through your time with us at every session/in-home visit.
