Programme Details
| Target audience: | Parents of infant, school-age, adolescent and adult children |
| Theme/subject matter: | This programme uses an evidence-based model of Emotion Focused Skills Training to empower parents in their relationships with their children. |
| Method of delivery: | In person, 2 day workshop which can be tailored/adapted to need |
| Programme aims: | The programme is based around the core principle that to help children and young people feel better we need to help them get better at feeling. The adults in a child’s life are best placed and most suitable to help them in this goal, and to ensure their emotional needs are being recognised and responded to in the process. We provide a dynamic and reflective workshop to enhance parent’s abilities to navigate emotions and enhance their motivation to transform relationships with practical skills around validation, apologising, strengthening boundaries and limit setting. |
| Resources used: | Emotion Focused Skills Training Model Developed by Joanna Dolhanty & Anne Hilde Vassbø Hagen |
