Are you worried about your child's behaviour? Maybe it's their gaming or phone use that's worrying you or maybe its their attitude towards their school, studies or sporting endeavours.

In this mini episode "minisode" of Let's Reconnect Breanna takes you through the Stages of Change Model - a therapeutic model professionals use when working with someone who is wanting to change a problematic behaviour. We discuss how parents or people worried about a child's behaviour can tailor their conversations, support and approach to children or teens based on where they are along the 'stages of change'.
