Who is Melissa?
I’m Melissa, a certified P.E.T. (Parent Effectiveness Training) Instructor and Parenting Expert. I am also a bilingual speech pathologist with over 25 years of experience helping children and their families. I am passionate about coaching parents, and helping them get in touch with their BEST PARENTING. You can feel confident, successful, and maintain a strong relationship with your child while, at the same time, creating safe boundaries to allow your child to grow and thrive.
Your best parenting starts here!
I was raised by parents who learned and followed these P.E.T. skills, and instilled those skills in me (and my 3 siblings). I am raising my own two kids the same way. I can show you how to use effective, peaceful, and compassionate parenting skills that will positively impact your family for generations to come.
What is P.E.T.? (Parent Effectiveness Training)
P. E.T. is an 8 session parent-training program that teaches you how to communicate effectively with your children, and offers step-by-step skills and techniques to resolve family conflicts and meet the needs of all family members. These techniques will show you:
How to avoid being a permissive parent
How to listen so your children will talk to you and talk so that your children will listen
How to teach your children to “own” their problems and solve them independently
How to apply the “No Lose” method to resolve conflicts
Children Don’t Come with an Instruction manual.
Parent Effectiveness Training (P.E.T.) offers proven communication skills that work. When you use these skills, you will have a family/home environment with less fighting, fewer tantrums, and no need for punishment.
Created by three-time Nobel Peace Prize Nominee Dr. Thomas Gordon, an award-winning psychologist, the P.E.T. program has stood the test of time.
You will learn these communication and conflict-resolution skills to create a nurturing family environment where everyone thrives!
