Parenting a troubled child can be a very stressful experience. There is an overwhelming need to understand what is going on for your child, and most importantly, how to support them in the best ways possible. Whilst there are no ‘magic answers’, often knowing a little more about the difficulty your child is facing, and exploring different strategies to support them can be incredibly helpful.
Parent Seminar: How to help your child with self-harm
Self-harm comes in all shapes and sizes, and can start in the toddler years. For some children, it is a way of coping with their big feelings; and for others it is a way of communicating their needs. This seminar looks at the emotive topic of self-harm to help parents understand why their child may be hurting themselves. We explore and discuss how you can support your child with their self-harm, and what to do if you are concerned aout your child’s safety.
In this Parent Seminar Series, a Clinical Psychologist will walk you through how to understand the difficulty; and how to support your child in ways that can create change and hope. These are very much ‘how to’ seminars – you will leave with some practical strategies that you can try the moment you get home!
10am - 11.30am
Open to anybody (18+). Parents do not need to attend every session, please book on to the individual seminars that are of interest to you.
