v What do you believe is MOST HELPFUL about service you, your child/family are receiving at Child & Family Guidance Center of Texoma?
My children felt very comfortable with their therapists. They had bonded with them very well. I would do this again if the need arises.
That there is a place to go regardless of insurance for help.
Thank you so much. Without your service I can’t imagine how these girls would have dealt with their dad’s death. I can’t thank you enough. I have been singing the praise of your center’s service and of Karen’s work with the girls.
Jake controls his temper better and stops to think things out.
The therapist actually listens to the parent and comes up with wonderful solutions to help with certain problems at home.
My son’s therapist really listens and honestly tries to find a reasonable solution that will help…not a quick fix. The staff is always friendlily and make you feel at home that you can talk about any and everything.
Sincere concern for my children and wonderful guidance for me.
Colton gains a little more confidence after each visit.
Gives me a chance to talk out my problems and I can see things differently if I talk it out.
The kindness and willingness to listen to the current problem at hand and suggestions on how to handle different situations.

v What was the MOST helpful thing about the course:
I need to watch my own anger. I need to be careful of bringing someone else into my child's life during this time of adjustment. I need to stop being critical. Thank you.
Hearing the children on the videos speak out in their own words. The class is a wonderful thing.
How to learn to stop fighting with my ex-spouse and to get along for the kids.
I will be a better parent due to the class.
To be there for your kids and to try to get along with your ex. I’m glad I came to this class.
To listen to my child about how she feels.
Someone other than me telling my soon to be ex not to put our children in the middle.
This course definitely needs to be mandatory for all divorcing parents.
How children get caught in the middle.
I saw myself doing some things that were not in the best interest of my children.
Changed my heart, even though I thought I was doing all I could. Put a new outlook on all our pain we have. Thank you.
I had the opportunity to see what I can do differently.
