Parallel Process Parent Workshop: Transforming Alongside your Struggling Child 

In this supportive workshop, parents will identify, understand and transform their negative relationship patterns with their child.

• Participants will come away with a "felt sense" of how to respond differently. 
• Parents will increase their self-awareness through identifying their feelings and patterns.
• Parents will integrate new communication skills through role-plays.
• Parents will practice reflective listening and learn how to empower their children to solve their own problems.
• Parents will develop greater awareness of parent-child differentiation.
• The Parallel Process concepts will be integrated through experiential learning, and group sharing.  
• In this relaxed setting, parents can build new skills to confidently parent their preteen, teen or young adult child.
