Parenting Workshops
Feeling stuck as a parent? Rachel provides online parenting workshops to support parents while waiting for 1:1 therapy services and to support the wider community of families. By bringing together child development principles alongside evidence based behaviour and communication support strategies for parents, these workshops will put you on the right path. Online workshops cover a range of topics including communication, positive behaviour, relationship building, boundaries, siblings relationships and parent stress management.
The "First steps" workshop series is specifically designed for families on the waitlist for child psychology services and supports parents get on the right path and ready for 1:1 therapy.
Acceptance and Commitment therapy (ACT) are utilised and this has been shown to be highly effective for parents in managing stress and emotional burnout. Rachel also provides behaviour basics and positive behaviour support coaching for parents of neurodivergent children and for managing complex behaviours.
