"Kids Count of Milford was lucky to find an exceptional Conscious Discipline trainer in Beth Anspach. Beth not only brought her knowledge of Conscious Discipline and real-life classroom experience with her but also her unique style filled with music, wit, and compassion for children and caregivers alike. She connected with the attendees throughout the interactive trainings using great visuals, role playing, songs and exercises to keep us energized and learning. Overwhelmingly, attendees expressed interest in more workshops and wishing she could be “in every classroom”! Several commented that the workshops were “better than a college course.” We hope to have her back in the near future."
My husband and I took Beth Anspach's Conscious Discipline training after becoming parents and realizing we needed to find a non-fear-based way to help our children listen. We knew there had to be a better way. Thankfully, we found Beth and our lives changed. Beth's class taught us about how the brain works, how to empathize and listen, and the best part is that we were given the tools and skills to take back to our family and put into action. There is something special about Beth - she loves what she does! She is an amazing speaker and teacher, and she genuinely cares about the families that work with her."
"I first took a Conscious Discipline series with Beth when we were having trouble with some behaviors and became concerned about escalation as the teen years approached. Instead of learning how to fix specific behaviors I learned how I could facilitate a better relationship and support my kids through adolescence. I now have tools to help us through situations that in the past would have felt overwhelming. I have a better relationship with my kids than ever before due to Conscious Discipline and Beth's guidance and teaching. She was never judgmental and always lead with patience and caring. My relationships with all the important people in my life have improved thanks to Conscious Discipline, and my understanding and ability to follow the teachings are better thanks to Beth."
"I come away with new knowledge and skills after every interaction with Beth. She fills her classes and trainings with such a wealth of knowledge, lots of personal stories and many opportunities to practice the new skills. Beth is very approachable, warm, and always welcomes questions or comments to reinforce or deepen the learning. Beth is an engaging presenter, and offers a relaxed and fun environment to learn the life-changing skills that she is so passionately sharing. I have recommended her classes to many, and I will continue to do so. I have yet to be disappointed, and I continue to learn from her with each and every interaction. My family and I are beyond grateful for all the skills she has taught us, as our home is now a more peaceful and loving place. "
