The Most Famous Words of Love That We Can Live By

Love is Patient, Love is Kind…

I was recently at a funeral of a well-respected psychologist, who dedicated most of her career to troubled youth. At her beautiful service, the minister read these famous words on love which we usually hear at weddings. I realized that these are words we should also remind ourselves of on a daily basis and especially on our parenting journey. Children thrive on love. Whether we have any religious or spiritual beliefs, or not, I believe these are words we should all try to live by. As we celebrate Valentine’s Day today, it seems fitting to bring these words into our awareness. I’ve also created a Love is Patient heart image (pdf), if you would like to download a copy as a visual reminder.

Happy Valentine’s Day to you and your loved ones,

Warmly,

My daughter was struggling with anxiety and it was getting to the point where it was beginning to affect her and our life on a daily basis. If she knew she was going to be outside of her comfort zone she would start to panic and focus on something in an obsessive and negative way in anticipation of the upcoming situation. She was the most anxious she had ever been when she started the six week anxiety management course with Sharon. She loved Sharon immediately and felt very comfortable with her. She has learned through Sharon why she may feel this way and how to use skills to help her cope better. I wondered how much she might absorb as a six-year-old but she seems to be able to remember and use what Sharon has taught her. As she was taking the course her anxiety decreased dramatically. When she begins to get anxious again we use the skills she has learned and talk about how she can manage and cope with the things that are bothering her. I have also learned how to help her. Our experience with Sharon has been invaluable. My daughter says she is the best teacher she has ever had! Thanks Sharon.

Thank you, Sharon. I want to let you know how much I value everything you have been teaching me, and to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of your support and guidance in helping me to become a better mother to my children.

Sharon has helped our family so much, not only with our son of 12, who in the last couple of years experienced a lot of anxiety and a lack of confidence, but with our understanding of how anxiety works and how we as parents can best deal with it. Our son completed the seven-week ‘Brain Training’ course with Sharon which helped him considerably. I feel, however, that the real changes came when my wife and I adjusted our parenting style to address not only our son’s anxiety, but our own, as well. We are amazed at the changes in our son, he is like a different person, much more confident and far less anxious.
