- Shift the mental blocks that are currently stopping you from achieving harmony and balance in your household, creating a nurturing space where both you and your child can thrive.
Why is this workshop free?
For complete transparency, The Empowered Parent is a free workshop designed to directly support parents. This new approach differs from the child-centered intervention model. We believe that by supporting parents, the entire family benefits.
These tools and strategies are advantageous not only for children but also for the amazing parents raising them. Because this is an innovative model, we created this free workshop to demonstrate exactly what it entails and the potential outcomes of this personal growth journey for both the health and well-being of parents and their children.
If parents feel that this new model of supporting themselves as a way to support their child is right for them, they can immediately join our online courses, coaching, and community. This workshop has been created to showcase and highlight this new therapy approach and its benefits for those families seeking an alternative way to support themselves and their children.
