Parent Support Sessions 

Online and in-person parenting support to help you better understand your unique child, respond with empathy and compassion to their emotional needs, and be the calm, connected parent you always wanted to be - even if no one ever showed you how.

What can I help you with? 

 

If you are the parent of a child aged between 2 and 18 years old, and you would like to gain a better understanding of your child's behaviour and how to respond to it without yelling, threatening, or using punishments, then parent support sessions are for you!

These sessions are all about reducing your stress and building YOUR skills and confidence so you can be the parent you always wanted to be to your child.

What we work on in these sessions is guided by you, but some of the things we might cover include:

  • Education about your child's neurotype to help you better understand them and their needs
  • Processing and unpacking your feelings around the identification of your child as neurodvergent in a safe space 
  • Exploring your own neurotype and potential neurodivergent identity following identification of your child as neurodivergent
  • Support with implementing responsive, neuroaffirming parenting strategies and moving away from mainstream, punitive practices that increase stress for you and your child
  • Support to build your own emotional regulation skills so that you can feel more confident and calm when responding to your child's big emotions and behaviours
  • Co-regulation and emotion coaching skills to help you respond to your child's emotions in a way that helps them feel truly seen and understood
  • Strategies for building a deeper connection with your child in a way that makes sense for them and allows them to feel truly "known" by you
  • Support to set and hold compassionate boundaries with your child that helps to keep them, and the rest of your family safe and healthy

How does it work? 

 

Appointments are available either in person or via Telehealth. This allows you the freedom to choose how you access support and what works best for you. It also means you have the flexibility to access support from anywhere in Australia!

Online appointments are available Mon-Wed and Fri between 9am and 3pm. In person appointments are available on Fridays ONLY.

Online sessions are conducted through a video chat platform called VSee. This platform works in a similar way to Zoom, but with end-to-end encryption to ensure your privacy at all times. To access online sessions you will need:

→ A computer, laptop, tablet or phone with a camera, microphone and speaker

→A quiet, private place to talk where you feel comfortable and will not be interrupted.

→A fast and reliable internet connection.

If you are attending via Telehealth, you will be sent a link to access your session. At your scheduled appointment time you will simply click on the link to be connected to Sarah. If you arrive early, you will wait in an online waiting room until Sarah is available, just as you would at the in-person clinic. You can then engage in therapy in the comfort of your own private space.
