Parenting That Heals
Parenting That Heals
Dr. Sandy Gluckman
My rather unique parenting approach, is rooted in neuroscience and empowers parents to build the kind of parent-child relationship that builds resilient, confident children, that learn easily, behave positively, feel good about themselves and love life. I believe that the chemistry between the parent and the child, can be the trigger for learning, behavior and mood challenges. The relationship between the parent and the child also has the power to reverse and heal these problems.
