Parenting

The programme for parents, the one to one mentoring and workshops provided by our Parent and Relationship Mentors gives equal emphasis to the developmental needs of both parents and their children.  It offers parents the knowledge and skills necessary to enrich their lives and grow and mature emotionally, psychologically and spiritually.  The achievement of these goals provides a solid basis for the establishment of healthy family relationships and for effective parenting.

The Parent and Relationship Mentor and the individual / parent seeking support, work together to uncover what was wisely and creatively hidden in the face of unsafety.

Through safe holding imbued with kindness, compassion, patience and understanding of our common humanity, we find real ways of living our lives and making conscious choices and decisions for ourselves and for our children.

 

“Doing the Parenting Course with the Relationship Mentor was one of the best investments we’ve made. We did this in private sessions rather than a class. This allowed us to go deeper into our own situations and to engage in challenges and growth that we would have found difficult in a group. It is now several months since we finished the initial course and the effects are still working. The course material is concise and clear, and the Mentor’s manner was both supportive and challenging”.
