I will provide you with the Care and Competency that you deserve. My counseling mantra is “Helping You Develop Healthy Habits for an Enjoyable Life, Marriage, and Family.” I am enthusiastic in coaching and counseling individuals, couples, and parents with practical specific words and actions along with essential knowledge.
My 2020 three-time national award-winning SIMPLE HABITS FOR MARITAL HAPPINESS is the ONLY MARRIAGE BOOK that provides practical specific words, behaviors, and significant knowledge in the SEVEN MAJOR AREAS of a relationship for a strong satisfying marriage. This must-read book will immediately increase marital happiness and dramatically improve troubled relationships! These effective habits will help every couple successfully communicate, eliminate arguments, enhance emotional intimacy, increase physical closeness, apologize, forgive, and budget as well as guard a marriage from destructive problems. In my counseling practice, I have helped over 2,000 couples achieve a happy marriage with these simple yet very effective habits.
My 2021 two-time national award-winning SIMPLE HABITS FOR EFFECTIVE PARENTING is the ONLY PARENTING BOOK that provides detailed guidance in the SEVEN KEY ASPECTS of parenting. This comprehensive resource of effective habits is an inspiring read for every parent seeking an easy-to-understand approach to raising a child! Thousands of parents have learned how to successfully strengthen their parent-child connection, boost a child’s self-worth, build self-confidence, guide with loving discipline, increase faith in Jesus, and provide a child with life skills. Happy, confident children driven to reach their full potential with self-motivation, good decision-making skills, a positive attitude, and determination are raised by effective parents.
FREE Discussion Guides for SIMPLE HABITS FOR MARITAL HAPPINESS and SIMPLE HABITS FOR EFFECTIVE PARENTING can be downloaded from my website, DrRandySchroeder.com. Both books are available at the FOCUS ON THE FAMILY Store, CrossLinkPublishing.com, and Amazon.
