Currently counseling children and adolescents to support them in finding their inner strength in the midst of their world. (Transition, Adjustment, Addictions, Anxiety/Fears, Depression, Divorce, Loss/Grief, Trauma/PTSD) In St. Louis Metropolitan Area, we are accepting children ages 4-18, Missouri Medicaid and Private Pay. Contact me for scheduling and availability at 314-702-0952. FunShops, presentations, public speaking and children's books, we hope to reach the masses! Character Cubs is focused on helping children and adults increase their levels of empathy while educating them on individual differences. Raising empathetic children will assist in preparing them to be effective, contributing leaders to society as adults. We firmly believe the best way to change our world is to reach children at young ages before they grow up with pre-conceived notions and stereotypes. Fur Cub FunShops allow children to learn necessary character traits in relation to special needs individuals while playing! We will equip these young minds with necessary education and tools to assist in accepting typically ostracized members of society. This approach is set up as a workshop, but our children will be having too much FUN! Presentations and Public Speaking opportunities will allow us to reach adults in a more direct approach. Reaching adults will assist in solidifying and reaffirming what our children are learning. We must continue to inspire children from all avenues: Schools, Playgrounds, Neighborhoods, Grocery Stores, YMCA's, etc. Our children are exposed to so much and if our adults are equipped with effective tools, we will continue to effectively raise our children to develop a more cohesive living, learning and loving society. Fur Cubs Book Series will promote awareness, education and empathy in children at young ages so they may also pay forward the information they've learned. The books and other tools will assist in preparing each child to increase their levels of courage in standing firm in their beliefs. The Series will reach children all across the globe in hopes of sparking a world-wide understanding of special needs individuals, increased tolerance and unconditional love at levels our world has yet to experience!
