Positive Approaches Life is a philosophy that helps you learn to be mindful of the choices you make. It encourages you to evaluate and improve interactions to achieve a better outcome. We meet in groups to learn about and practice that session's topic. Growth in speaking and listening skills are practiced in every class.

Positive Approaches Life also helps companies and agencies with team-building seminars and classes for better cooperation within and between departments on every level.

New mentors entering the field and  experienced mentors alike, can benefit from learning person-centered strategies to motivate the people they work with in fresh ways using tips and tricks learned in Positive Approaches Life classes.  

Dee uses real life examples and guest speakers to open students minds and to encourage participation in working on goals and making real changes in the lives of the people they work with. 

The incredible changes I’ve seen in my daughter after attending Positive
Approaches classes regularly have been noticed by all of my friends and family members. Dee has inspired her and supported her as she has grown. - Debbie

My son is a different person after increasing his ability to communicate with everyone. - Kathy  

Do I have to come to classes every week?

Classes are designed to stand alone with each topic but we do build on and expand on topics from one week to the next.

Why is it recommend to have a mentor with me in class if I have one?  

Having a mentor with you is recommended for a few reasons. 1) To help you remember situations you may have experienced related to the topic at hand. 2) Your mentor can help you apply the principles learned in class throughout the week. 3) Many of the topics discussed in class can be applied by mentors in their own lives. 

Can I be reimbursed for the cost of this class?

If you have a self-directed budget and have funds available in classes, you can submit proof of payment to see if you can be reimbursed. 

Do I need to prepay for classes?

Unless you have made arrangements prior to class, all classes need to be paid for prior to the  class.

What is the refund policy?

There are no refunds for missed classes. If you would like to make up a missed class there may be a different location offering the same topic you can attend.

I’ve learned many things at Positive Approaches like how to deal with stress,  what to do when things don’t go my way and what kinds of things give me an Ahh sensation. I have learned how to ask for help before I get upset and do things that I am sorry for later and many, many, many other things I can't name right now.

Dee has helped me when I get stuck too.

I like coming to classes to help me look at my problems in a different way. Every class I have attended has helped me a lot.
