Dear Lynne, Thank you for your response. I have been reading about this same technique in a parenting book. There it is called "descriptive praise" (the book is based on the work of Dr. Haim Ginott). I have been trying to do it with my daughter but find it hard to think of the right words to describe what I see. Your reply will help me both with my daughter and in therapy. Thanks!
