Parenting can be one of the most challenging and daunting tasks you’ll ever face, so it is only natural for there to be some fears and concerns. Learning to navigate and strengthen your role as a parent is a critical step, whether you are having your first child, or adding one more to the family.
As a parent, the questions can feel endless. The purpose of these sessions is to address any questions or concerns you have and allow you to envisage what your life will be. Your therapist will lead you through common areas of concern and be there to provide support – whether you just want a space in which you are able to talk or you are worried about a specific parenting challenge.
The Triple P- Positive Parenting Program has been one of the world’s most effective parenting programmes for over 30 years. It was designed to give parents the skills they need to raise confident and healthy children, build strong family relationships, manage misbehaviour and preempt problems before they occur.
Whether your concern lies with the small, large or isolated problems associated with raising kids, Triple P- Positive Parenting Program can help.
“Children who grow up with positive parenting are more likely to develop the skills they need to do well at school, build friendships, and feel good about themselves,” says Professor Sanders.
“They are also much less likely to develop behavioural or emotional problems when they get older. Similarly, parents who use positive parenting skills feel more confident and competent about managing day-to-day family life. They are also less stressed, less depressed and have less conflict with their partners over parenting issues.”
