I'm a school counselor & practice techniques for positive mental, physical, and spiritual growth. I strive to spread peace in all that I do. I'm passionate about sharing strategies to empower families while developing emotional intelligence (EI or EQ) and resiliency in children and adults. With that as my goal, I work to bring 'Mrs. King’s Toolbox Series' to kids of ALL ages at home and school.

The youngest of five children, I grew up in Southern California and love being around kids. I am the proud mother of two sons and grandmother of a two wonderful children.

The youngest of five children, I grew up in Southern California and love being around kids. I am the proud mother of two sons and grandmother of a two wonderful children. I have been enjoying life with my husband for over 37 years. I earned a BA in Social Relations from the University of California, Riverside while focusing on early childhood education. A few years later, I received both Multiple Subject and Single Subject teaching credentials on my way to a Masters Degree in Education. Although I loved teaching, I wanted to be able to spend more time with the most at risk students so went back to school for my School Counseling (PPS) Credential.

While counseling students in grades K-12, I looked for a way to effectively help more families while addressing Emotional Intelligence (also known as EI or EQ). Increasing EQ makes children more resilient when faced with bullying or any other stressors. I saw the need to introduce empowering, positive, mental health strategies ("Super Powers") at an early age. Parents needed to learn how to use, and reinforce, those strategies/tools in order for them to become life changing habits. Writing a hybrid children’s, parenting, and self-help book was the answer.

“Mrs. King’s Toolbox Series” was launched in March of 2014 with the debut of my first book, 'I Don’t Want to Go to Kindergarten…I’ll Miss You Toooo Much!' Although the specific challenge in this book involves starting school, the skill taught will empower your child (and you) through ANY difficult situation encountered in life. I absolutely love sharing my book with children, parents, and educators. I follow my passion for helping others by working as a school counselor, making author visits, and sharing free information on my website: http://www.abcabetterme.com.

It is always an honor to hear from those who have benefited from my book or other resources. Follow me on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/MaureenKingA...

Thank you, Maureen

“Be careful what you water your dreams with. Water them with worry and fear and you will produce weeds that choke the life from your dream. Water them with optimism and solutions and you will cultivate success. Always be on the lookout for ways to turn a problem into an opportunity for success. Always be on the lookout for ways to nurture your dream.”
― Lao Tzu
