The Nurtured Heart Approach (NHA) is a very pragmatic and easily understood system 
designed to turn the challenging child around to a new pattern of success. The approach has 
been found to produce substantial success in helping children flourish at higher than 
expected levels of achievement. The NHA teaches significant adults how to positively 
support experiences of success in children while not accidentally energizing their 
experiences with failure. NHA offers a means of adult-child communication that results in an 
increased pattern of positive interactions which promotes a sense of healing and healthier 
relationships. The Nurtured Heart Approach will teach you how to stop nagging, lecturing, 
yelling, and feeling overwhelmed with parenting and help you build solid, and respectful 
relationships with your children. The Nurtured Heart Approach will benefit children in all 
ages and stages from the easy going child to the strong-willed and intense child.

intentions

flourish 
• You want to reserve the use of medications as a last 
resort, or you want an approach that will give you the 
strong probability of shifting the child off medications 
• You want to gain a new perspective on your life and the 

children/youth in your life
