PET Maleny Flyer 2015

Leeann Horrill

Sunshine Coast, QLD

I am a Counsellor, Psychotherapist and Parent Effectiveness Training instructor. I have been intensively studying parenting and child development since my son was born in 2006. I am passionate about PET because it helps parents to listen deeply and build warm loving relationships with their children whilst also giving parents practical skills for gaining cooperation from their kids, without using coercion and control. The foundation of effective communication and relationship skills provided by PET helps parents raise responsible, resilient kids and makes parenting easier and more joyful!
