Future Rooted Transformation Counseling (FRTC)
A clear, caring approach created to help youth and families grow, heal, and move into their future with confidence.
​
What Is FRTC?
Future Rooted Transformation Counseling (FRTC) is the guiding framework we use at Tomaro’s C.H.A.N.G.E. It blends the best parts of counseling, emotional wellness, coaching, and cultural wisdom to help children, teens, and families grow in ways that feel natural, safe, and empowering. FRTC focuses on who your child is becoming, not just what challenges they’re facing right now.
​
It’s a model built on three simple ideas:
​
1. Every child has a story.
We help youth understand their experiences, emotions, and identity without judgment. We guide them to rewrite the parts of their story that no longer serve them and build healthier chapters ahead.
2. Every family deserves support that feels like home.
FRTC respects culture, values, and family dynamics. We don’t force one-size-fits-all approaches. We walk alongside you to create solutions that actually work for your home, your schedule, and your child’s personality.
3. The future matters as much as the present.
Instead of focusing only on problems, we help youth build the skills, confidence, and mindset they need to thrive, today and in the future.
​
How FRTC Helps Youth
FRTC gives young people space to:
* Express feelings safely
* Build emotional regulation skills
* Strengthen identity and self-esteem
* Develop healthier coping tools
* Understand their experiences and choices
* Improve communication and relationships
* Set goals and create their own path forward
​
It’s supportive, structured, and designed to help youth feel seen, heard, and capable.
How FRTC Supports Parents & Caregivers
Parents receive guidance that is practical, not overwhelming.
​
FRTC helps caregivers learn:
* What your child is working through
* How to support emotional wellness at home
* Ways to communicate that build trust
* Strategies to keep routines and expectations clear
* How to help your child stay on a positive path
You’re never left out of the process. We work as a team.
