DYNAMIC PARENT COACHING by phone. LORNA BENTON – 303-449-0345-As an experienced child, adolescent, and family therapist, I am familiar with a myriad of common and not-so-common child/adolescent behavioral issues and parenting challenges. With that experience and knowledge, I coach you to effectively manage and problem-solve issues with your children, all in a manner that is unique, appropriate, and comfortable to you. I have a diverse background, including coaching education and clinical education and training, with a strong background in attachment work. I have hands on experience, which gives me a more broad background in which to be more helpful with my clients. While I am a straight talker, I also use a lot of compassion and humor in order to help you gain a clearer perspective on the situation. http://www.dynamicparentcoaching.com
