Welcome Back No-Problem Parents!
Do you notice yourself, or someone you love:
- Becoming frequently upset?
- Wishing to have more control and quit saying hurtful words or actions?
- Despite doing your/their best to be calm, continuing to have outbursts?
- Experiencing anger as a rapidly rising torrent of emotion?
- Targeting hurtful words or actions at others before even realizing you’re/they’re angry?
- Struggling to comprise without getting angry?
- Becoming violent when consuming alcohol?
Richard's approach to anger management counseling is different than traditional anger management programs. "I seek to understand your unique anger pattern, interrupt that pattern, and even replace your habit with a new way of responding tailored to you".

Welcome Back No-Problem Parents!
Every Behavior is Communication! It can be tough to deal with behaviors.
Perhaps your child is biting, hitting, kicking, spinning, running into walls or climbing on everything. Maybe as they've grown their risk-taking behaviors are increasing, their attention span is decreasing or maybe they just don't seem to have any ambition to try new things and their self esteem is suffering?
Step one of No-Problem Parenting is to "Seek first to Understand "why my child is behaving the way they are" and why am I, the parent, responding or reacting the way "I am?"
Are you a parent of a child with autism, ADHD, or behavioral issues who is frustrated with your current service provider?
Are you feeling overwhelmed with the number of services your child is receiving?
Do you feel discouraged because your child has reached a plateau, but you know they have so much more potential?

Welcome Back, No-Problem Parents!
Every day could be Mothers Day in my book but I love the story of how and why Mothers Day was started in the USA and so I thought I’d share that with you today!
You might be surprised to learn that it wasn’t simply to treat Moms to a day off or give them a special card or gift. The creation of a national Mother's Day is primarily attributed to three women: Ann Reeves Jarvis, Julia Ward Howe, and Ann's daughter, Anna M. Jarvis, who championed efforts toward better health, welfare, peace, and love. It essentially began as a women’s movement to better the lives of other Americans. Listen in, it's a great story of how the day finally came to be and how it almost ended.

Welcome Back No-Problem Parents!
Do you have a tween or teen that is struggling with;
• Ongoing conflicts in relationships
• Intense and rapid mood changes
• Inability to relax
• Trouble recognizing choice
• Holding in anger, then “blowing up” at others
• Impulsive or reactive decisions they often regret
• Self-medicating with substances, e.g., food, sugar, alcohol,
"busy-ness", spending, etc.
• Feeling overwhelmed
• Avoiding responsibilities, people, or events
• “Numbing out” in response to fear, anger, etc?
Are you worried, nervous around them, unsure what to do or how to talk to your teen? Are you trying to be your child's friend in an effort to be relatable or smooth things over enough to have a good day? Guess what? Your uncertainty, your "being nice" may actually be causing our kids to be anxious and ashamed.
Listen in to the conversation about how we need to talk with our teens as much (or more)
about our thoughts as we do our feelings.
Meet Dr. J.J. Kelly, of Unorthodocs, Inc.
"After 16 years of passionately working in the current system of the mental health profession and seeing the systemic sexism, racism, homophobia, ableism, narcissism and elitism…I wanted nothing more than to burn it all down. Then I decided to redirect my outrage into building something new based on love, laughter, and teaching emotional intelligence – because I believe that global healing is achieved by teaching people the skills to like themselves, or as I always say….Happy people act right."
Dr. J.J. offers courses through her Get Real Program, an emotional skills training program based on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). DBT was developed by Dr. Marsha Linehan and combines Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Zen Mindfulness skills from Thich Nhat Hahn’s book, The Miracle of Mindfulness.
"DBT is The Sh**, and I make learning a complex set of concepts and skills fun and funny. Yer gonna laugh yourself right into healthy…” – Dr. Kelly
Listen in as Dr. J.J. Kelly shares that Emotional Intelligence is key to building self-esteem, Family Values are more important than having a "friendship" with your child and why humor is SO important to our mental health!
"Global healing is achieved by teaching people the skills to like themselves. The Get Real Program created by licensed clinical psychologist Dr. J.J. Kelly does just that."

Welcome Back No-Problem Parents!
Have your kids said things like "you just want everyone to think you're a perfect parent and believe we have a perfect family." Maybe they're telling you to back off or that they're sick of you always telling them what to do.
Do you feel as though you are sacrificing so much for your kids and they don't seem grateful?
In today's episode, my special guest Reverend Betsy Scott, author, coach, minister, grandmother and eventual Self-Love Parent shares how Growing up as a "good girl" caused her to parent from ego rather than love. Her children discovered her lack of self-love even before she did and called her on it.

Welcome Back No-Problem Parents!
Every parent wants to enjoy spending time with their kids, but how is it possible when yours are driving you up the bloody wall? Preparing kids with the expectations, defining what is going to happen before they go to a new place or experience something new, and giving them the opportunity to ask questions allows you, the parent to be proactive and decreases the odds that you will lose your sh** with your kids.
AND.... it helps you create trust, safety, and understanding in your relationship with your kids when they're little which sets a solid foundation for them as they grow.
