Parenting is one of the hardest roles you will have in life. Your child’s emotions, behaviors, and actions will trigger you again and again. One of the most challenging parts of being a parent is learning how to stay calm in the midst of your child’s big emotions. That’s because when you react to your child, you actually sabotage your ability to connect and teach them well. In this class, your host will teach you how to emotionally care for yourself and stay in control of your emotions when your child is feeling big things. Once the therapist has guided you through exercises and personal reflections, they'll open up the class for questions. You'll be able to ask our therapist anything, anonymously. Note: your attendance is completely anonymous and there is no audio or video required to ask questions. Can't join live? That’s okay! Many people prefer to use on-demand videos. Everyone who signs up will gain access to the live video recording.
