"The family is so important. When I hear from parents and children who are struggling, my heart goes out to them. But I know that there are answers. That’s why I work with parents every day. I'm a strategist and when I listen to the problems a parent faces, I know that we can develop an action plan to get family life back on track." —Dr. Scott Turansky

Dr. Turansky has worked with parents for over 25 years. He's coauthored four books on parenting and he and Joanne Miller have created two parent-training video series. They've also developed a set of Training Manuals to help parents.

The problem is that you can read a hundred books on parenting and still wonder how to put it all into practice in your family. Each child is unique and different.

For a limited time, Dr. Turansky is available for individual Phone Coaching Sessions. He wants to give you specific and practical help to draw your family back on track and give you hope.

Dr. Turansky has helped hundreds of families with this personalized approach. Here are just a few of the comments from parents who have helped their children make significant changes.

"I have read a lot of parenting books but the help I received in just one session was amazing.  Dr. Turansky's approach has changed our fourteen year old and we love the new ways we're relating to our eight year old. We are so grateful for the time we spent with him."
 —Mary West, Olympia WA

"I'm a single mom and had some problems with my son that I just couldn't handle. I'm also a psychologist, but Dr. Turansky's biblical insight helped me make changes with my son that I couldn't believe. If you're considering the coaching services of Dr. Turansky, you'll be glad you called.  My son and I are doing much better and I now have the tools and ideas I need to continue on myself."
 —Karen Prichard, Columbus, OH

"My wife and I both get on the phone with Dr. Turansky, I had lost hope and felt so overwhelmed by the disrespect. Our kids weren't listening to us and I felt like I was the enemy. I'm amazed at the difference in our home now. My wife and I feel much better and so do our kids. I now realize that they were miserable without the tools we now have. Dr. Turansky is caring and listened to us and then his solutions make me feel like he's met my family.  I'm so grateful for our sessions together."
—Carl Bridges, Lawrenceville, GA

You can get help too. Parents find solutions they need. You'll receive an individualized Action Plan tailored specifically for your family. You’ll receive the opportunity to try some new things and then set up a debriefing session to fine tune the plan.

Some families get so stuck in negative patterns, that life begins to look hopeless. Dr. Turansky can give new strategies and skills that will change the way your family relates. Our goal is to help children change their hearts, not just their behavior. We have a unique approach that we believe you’ll find refreshing and helpful. So much of the advice out there is merely behavior modification and quite frankly, rather shallow. What you need is a plan to touch and mold the heart of your child.

In each session, Dr. Turansky will meet with you, just you. Or you can have your spouse join if you'd like. He will spend part of the time listening to the challenges you’re facing with one of your children. You can deal with all of your kids at some point, but it's best to start with one at a time. Then Dr. Turansky will explain to you what's going on in the dynamics within your family. He will give you practical assignments that make up your Action Plan. He will show you how these practical steps fit into an overall strategy to get your family on a positive track.

You will spend the next week or so working on that assignment and strategy with your family. If you choose to talk together again and debrief about the progress, he'll coach you with another Phone Coaching Session and give you another individual Action Plan. You'll be surprised at how quickly your family will grow closer and stronger.

We find that when people need help, but can’t afford the phone coaching, that often their church has finances to help.  You might consider asking your church or some individuals to consider sponsoring you for a few sessions. With just a few weekly appointments, you could develop some new skills and begin working on heart change in yourself, as well as your kids.
