From a young age, I was always drawn to helping others and knew from the depths of my being that I was put on this earth for a reason. Growing up, I faced my own set of challenges and, through those experiences, developed a deep empathy for children struggling with behavior issues, especially those with special needs and the ones labeled ‘bad,’ ‘troubled,’ and ‘beyond hope’.

I remember feeling misunderstood, frustrated, unseen at my essence and also underestimated in many facets of my young life. These misperceptions, while not easy to surpass, ignited a relentless drive within me to bring concrete solutions to parents who are going through similar experiences.

My professional journey began with a degree in child and adolescent development, but my true education came from the countless hours spent working directly with children and their families in schools, for nonprofit organizations, in homes and the community.

I have worked as a paraprofessional, nanny, teacher and administrator of private schools, as well as an independent consultant for families and schools attempting to manage children with mild to severe behavioral issues for over 30 years. Each child I’ve worked with has taught me something new, and every family’s story has added to my understanding of the complexities of child behavior.

I’ve seen firsthand how behavioral issues can strain relationships and create a stressful home environment. I’ve also seen the incredible transformations that can occur when families receive the right support and guidance. Spiritually, I believe that every child is a unique and beautiful soul on a journey of growth and learning.

My approach is developmental in nature and holistic, taking into account not just the child’s behavior but their emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. I work closely with parents to help them understand why their children act the way they do. In comprehending the why, parents can then confidently make the necessary adjustments in their own parenting style to create a nurturing environment where their children can thrive and function happily and cooperatively in age-appropriate ways.

I understand that parenting is one of the most challenging jobs in the world, and it often feels overwhelming, especially when dealing with behavior problems.

I’ve been in your shoes, feeling the weight of worry and frustration. I know what it’s like to stay up at night wondering if you’re doing everything right, feeling the strain of trying to balance love and discipline. I’ve experienced the heartache of seeing a child struggle and the joy of witnessing their breakthroughs.

This journey is not easy, but you are not alone. I am here to offer you my undeniable expertise, support, and a compassionate heart.

Together, we can create a plan that addresses your child’s specific needs and brings harmony back to your home. My goal is to empower you with the tools and strategies you need to help your child succeed and to build a strong, positive relationship with them. Thank you for trusting me to be a part of your journey. I am honored to work alongside you and your family, guiding you through the challenges and celebrating the victories.

Let’s embark on this path together, with hope and confidence, towards a brighter future for your child.

With love and dedication,

Lori Abosch
