Five-Session Self-Discovery Program for Children (Ages 3-18) |
- Initial interview with parent(s).
- Interview with the child, with or without the parents. We build up trust through conversation, play, and art. We continue our consultation with the parent.
- Self-Discovery: We help each child to get a deeper understanding of themselves through conversation, free play, role-playing, drawings, and small assignments. We assist each child to discover their best qualities, and their hidden interests and talents.
- Improvement Plan: We create a personalized plan with the child and with the collaboration of the parent(s). Our intention is to support a better organized, a more successful, and a happier life for each child. We advise activities that stimulate both the right and the left sides of the brain. For boosting a well-rounded, well-balanced development, we also introduce a very simple mantra-meditation for regular practice.
- Follow-up session with the child and parent(s).
Fee: $250/5 sessions. Full payment required at the end of the second session.
