PARENT SUPPORT COUNSELING GROUPS

Empowering Parents is a group to equip parents with strategizes to implement Social Emotional Learning (SEL) practices in our children’s lives. Do you struggle with handling your children’s tantrums, have difficulty dealing with the lack of communication from your pre-teen or struggle with getting your teen out of isolation? Our group will foster emotional intelligence, resilience, emotional health and positive social interactions. This 10-week program will introduce you to SEL, what this is and how to apply this into your child’s daily life and your family, thus leading to an enhanced household balance. This safe space also provides ways to challenge the barriers to implementing SEL in a healthy collaborative environment. This weekly group will help us work with our children of all ages, to help create a balance and calmness to our daily lives. This experience promotes social wellbeing, self-awareness and relationship building skills for yourself and your child to create emotional wellbeing.

Parents of children who struggle with mental illness and/or neurodivergence face a difficult and often lonely road full of misunderstandings, judgment and isolation. Liriope’s Circle aims to create an understanding, judgment-free and communal space for these parents to share successes and challenges while gaining understanding into their children’s disorders. Incorporating art, mindfulness and DBT skills, this group meets parents where they are on their journey and invites them to grow together.

Sharing Hope and Finding Support provides an empathetic space to come together and discuss parenting experiences in a judgement-free environment. Our group will provide guidance and education on mental health diagnoses and everything that comes with them. We recognize the impacts of providing care for children with mental health challenges, to include relationship joys and challenges at home, navigating the diagnosis process, and working alongside the educational system and other providers. You are NOT alone and your experiences are valid. In group we will focus on skill-building, locating resources, and coming together with compassion and care.
