Parenting The Adlerian Way
148: Morgan Crew Discusses Her Adlerian-based “PREVAIL – Prove Your Power” Program For Parents
•
Always fantastic to interview my fellow Adlerians who are creating important curriculum for the public. In this episode, I talk to Morgan Crew who is a single mother of two (ages 17 and 20), a registered nurse as well as a registered psychotherapist and mental health educator. She has created a program to help teach mental health skills in an upstream manner, rather than waiting for a crisis. It’s great for parents, but also for teens and parents to take together!
