Parenting Success! is not a “parenting class.” It is a structured individualized process based on research-proven cognitive-behavior therapy:
- During each session, parents learn a specific behavior management skill.
- During the time between sessions, parents practice that specific skill.
- At the beginning of each session, successes are celebrated and problems are solved.
