training & Consultation
Tina Haefke (sHE/Her)
I have a passion to work with families and school staff who are frustrated in trying to manage child meltdowns and power struggles. As a social worker for over 30 years I have worked with many families and school staff, who are at their wits end, not sure what else to do to make it better.
Being a parent and working in the school system for over 20 years, I get it. Up at night worrying, the feeling of not knowing what else to do when punishments, behaviors charts, etc. do not work. I understand challenging behavior. I am confident that you have been doing the best that you can up to this point. If you want help in learning how to solve the problems that are creating stress and re-establish positive relationships, I can help you learn how to be successful.
As a trainer for Collaborative Problem Solving®. Think:Kids program in the Dept. of Psychiatry at the © Massachusetts General Hospital, I (with a co-trainer) can provide a Tier I training. Visit our Services page for more details.
