Why participate in a coaching group?  What can you gain from one?

By joining, you will discover that you are not alone in facing life’s challenges.  You will benefit from the shared wisdom and experience of the Coach and the participants in the group.

Dr. Spiegel conducts in-person and teleconference groups on numerous topics. 

In-Person Groups - These are workshops designed with a flexible format so that they are adaptable to professionals or laypersons, and are suitable for a variety of settings, including homes, schools and charitable institutions. 

Teleconference Groups – These groups are intended to meet the needs of women who are unable to participate in on-site workshops.  They are low-cost and highly effective.  In addition - because these groups take place over the telephone - they provide a unique opportunity for women in geographically diverse locations to “meet” and support each other. Click here to see upcoming Teleconference Groups.

Upcoming Teleconference Groups 

The next teleconference groups will take place this summer, beginning June 16th, 2008.  In response to popular demand we will focus on Parenting Children with AD/HD. 

There will be two sessions, one in the morning and the other in the evening.  Each teleconference group will be limited to 8 women, in order to maintain an atmosphere of trust, mutual support and confidentiality.

Many group participants are so pleased with the support and knowledge they receive from each other and from the coach that we continue to meet after our initial sessions!

Here is the list of topics that we will cover:

  • Diagnosis of AD/HD: What does it mean?
  • The challenges of a child with AD/HD
  • Individual situations, common patterns
  • Parenting without frustration
  • Collaborating with your child’s school
  • Feeling competent and in control

    • AD/HD Parenting Groups will begin June 16th & June 18th, 2008.

    Group A: Monday mornings 10:30 – 11:30 am
    Group B: Wednesday evenings 8:30 – 9:30 pm

    The fee for each group is $180 for all six sessions. That’s only $30 per hour-long session!

    I loved the feeling of camaraderie that we’re all in this together.

    Thank you for such a stimulating evening.  We all came away with some very positive ideas.

    I learned that my situation is not unique, that what I’m dealing with is not just in my family.

    I felt that I’m not the only one going through this.  When I heard someone else describe something she did, I thought, “I did the same thing!

    This is a forum in which we can feel safe and speak to each other.

    We get encouragement from the Coach and from each other; no one in our homes offers that.  We’re getting validated. 

    I learned not to dwell on the past because you can’t change the past anyway. To worry about the future is foolish, also. You have to live in the present, to do the best you can right now.

    Thanks so much for the outstanding, informative workshop.  Your professional expertise combined with your practical view and warm approach inspired us all.
