Thinking Traps
Teens can be tough on themselves. One awkward moment can become a disaster in their heads — and suddenly, it’s all worst-case scenarios and "everyone hates me."
This workshop gives parents simple, science-backed tools to help young people spot those thoughts, challenge them, and feel more in control.
Parents will learn how to:
✅ Help kids notice anxious or negative thought spirals
✅ Guide kids in challenging unhelpful thinking patterns
✅ Support without dismissing — validate their experience and respond in ways that actually help
Emotion Regulation
Big feelings are normal. But knowing how to be in control of the feelings in the heat of the moment? That’s where this workshop comes in.
You’ll get hands-on strategies to regulate your own emotions, support others through theirs, and create a calmer home environment.
Parents will learn how to:
✅ Stay grounded when emotions run high (yours or theirs)
✅ Learn evidence-based techniques that help normalise and validate big feelings
✅ Clarify what kids needs from you during big moments so they feel empowered and not dismissed
Dealing With Conflict
Whether it’s a heated chat at lunchtime or disagreements in the group chat, conflict happens. But when handled well, conflict can actually strengthen relationships — not break them.
This workshop gives you the practical tools to help children navigate their conflict without making things worse.
Parents will learn how to:
✅ Support kids to stay regulated so they can think clearly through their conflicts
✅ Teach kids resilience in conflict by perspective taking and problem solving
✅ Empower kids how to identify their needs in their relationships and how to assertively express them
Inner Critic
Teenagers can internalize negative judgments and be their own worst enemy.
It can be hard for parents to see their children adopt negative self-talk.
This workshop shows parents ways they can encourage their child to be more compassionate to themselves.
Parents will learn how to:
✅ Help kids recognize their inner dialogue
✅ Guide kids to develop a better relationship with themselves
✅ Support kids to talk to themselves in a more positive and compassionate way.
