Empower yourself with effective strategies to nurture your strong-willed child’s potential and foster a harmonious family dynamic through our specialized ‘Parenting Young Children with Challenging Behaviors’ workshop for parents of children ages 2-8.
Parenting is HARD and parenting a strong-willed child brings its own set of unique challenges. In this workshop series, you will learn techniques for managing power struggles, setting boundaries, and fostering cooperation while maintaining a positive parent-child relationship. Together, we will work to embrace your strong-willed child’s strengths and channel it into positive growth and development.
This program consists of eight modules (10-20 minutes each) spread out over five weeks. I highly recommend that you follow the pace of the program as change will only come if you take your time and focus on one thing at a time. Below is an outline of course modules:
Week 1:
- Module #1: Introduction
- Module #2: Attending and Praise
Week 2:
- Module #3: Active Ignoring
- Module #4: Emotion Regulation & Self-Care
Week 3:

This on-demand workshop is inspired by the extensive research of Dr. Rex Forehand and his colleagues. As such, it is recommended that you also read the best-selling parenting book Parenting the Strong-Willed Child by Drs. Rex Forehand, Nicholas Long, and Deborah Jones while completing the weekly modules.
Below are the recommended chapters for each week:
- Week 1: Chapters 1 – 7
- Week 2: Chapters 8, 15, & 16
- Week 3: Chapters 9, 14, & 18
- Week 4: Chapters 10 & 17

Dr. Nicole Breslend
Licensed Clinical Psychologist – Doctorate
I was closely mentored for more than 10 years by behavioral parent training expert, Dr. Rex Forehand. I am a faculty member at the University of Vermont where I trained the new generation of psychologists on these techniques.
I also have two (very strong-willed) young boys that I am always practicing these skills with! I am so excited to have the opportunity to share some of the tools that may make your days a little easier and your parenting load a little lighter.
