It starts with behavior shaping. I take an overwhelming task (such as making a healthy meal) & break it down into manageable steps.
I meet my clients where they are at, based on the Nursing Assessment. I gently guide, reinforce and shape behaviors to move towards mastering each step.
​
Positive reinforcement is used to encourage all progress, no matter how small. I build onto the new skills & encourage growth towards the next step.
This process helps shape desired behaviors until eventually the target goal is reached. The client's confidence in their achievements fosters momentum for the next challenge!
Professional knowledge, patience & practice is used to help clients maximize their potential and achieve their desired goals.
