What does the course aim to do?
This course is a path to fundamentally change your situation through:
1. Identifying, working with and addressing the aspects of your child’s difficulties and your
situation that you most struggle with.
2. Identifying, releasing and healing the feelings that get triggered in you by your child and their
difficulties so that you become more able to contain your child and their difficult feelings.
3. Supporting you to parent in a way that calms your child so that your child’s overstimulated
nervous system begins to unwind, so that your child learns to regulate their own feelings better
and feels a greater sense of safety within, and therefore becomes more able to handle life
situations.
4. Tapping into your child’s own motivation to grow by putting in place the foundations of a
relationship that create shared experiences and deepen connection as this is essential for them
to grow and change and for their true potential to begin to be unlocked.
