If you have a kid who’s struggling with their mental health, then you know what it’s like to be overwhelmed with worry, feel lost and discover how difficult it is to find help. This presentation will present four lies that you are probably telling yourself that are making you miserable. We will challenge these four common beliefs and then provide some tools to overcome them.

These tools will allow you to:

  • speak in a way your teen/young adult can hear you.
  • de-escalate tension.
  • challenge your own perceptions around parenting to become more effective.
  • emotionally regulate yourself so you can handle crisis well.

This program is for parents who:

  • feel lost or unsure of how to parent.
  • find themselves walking on eggshells.
  • experience a sense of embarrassment, shame or guilt.
  • fear they have done/are doing something wrong.
