WE'RE WITH YOU
When your child is struggling with their mental health, they can often feel completely alone. The ripple effect can leave us, as parents, feeling isolated, ashamed, judged.
We understand the unique challenges that come with parenting a child with a mental health issue. Access our Private & Confidential Facebook Community where more than 40,000 parents support each other day and night. You don’t have to do this alone.
JOIN THE BE PROGRAMME?
Parenting Mental Health is excited to announce The Be Programme, a new 8-week course designed specifically to support parents of children struggling with poor mental health. This course aims to enhance your self-confidence, strengthen your connection with yourself and equip you with practical self-care tools to navigate the challenges of parenting in these extraordinary circumstances.
The Be Programme is designed to reduce anxiety, foster a sense of belonging, and address common issues such as stress and burnout. You will engage in reflective practices like journaling and creative exercises, requiring no prior creative skills. The course also explores self-compassion, the dual roles of being a parent and a carer, and delves into topics like PTSD, trauma, and nervous system regulation.
We are currently offering 50 free places for the pilot version of this course - and you can apply now. we ask anyone wanting to take part to consider whether they can:
- Commit to attending all 8 sessions, either live or within a week of their release - starting on 3rd October
