Many parents of teens are facing increased stress and challenges during COVID.
Our support program is aimed at meeting the needs of parents of teens who are struggling to stay engaged with school, and or who are young people facing multiple challenges.

For these parents, simply giving more advice on how to parent or adding more prescriptive techniques may prove frustrating. We offer a significantly different approach to learning that involves:
- Re-orienting parents who may be exhausted and stressed towards recognising their own unmet needs and prioritising self-care.
- Giving parents a framework and strategies for relating based on Positive Psychology and strengths-based parenting. Learn to de-escalate charged situations.
- Proven stress management techniques including mindfulness and self-compassionate awareness.
- Providing the opportunity for interacting with other parents facing similar challenges in a non-judgemental unconditionally accepting environment.
