The Confident Parent Course
About
St John's on Geddes will be hosting the Confident Parent Course across 4 Sundays in August 2026 from 2:30pm.
Please register before 6th August 2026.
The course covers:
1. Where is my energy directed? (9th August)
2. Is worry driving my connection? (16th August)
3. How do I hold clear limits? (23rd August)
4. Am I thinking big picture? (30th August)
This course provides a balance of ideas and action role plays, with video seminars by Dr Jenny Brown and will be facilitated by Kate Hill and James Cullen.
Reflective questions and a printed workbook will be provided to help you apply the ideas to your own parenting.
Dr Jenny Brown has been working as a mental health professional in child and adolescent mental health for decades. From her research, clinical and consulting work she has developed an approach that helps parents to navigate the pressures of parenting in anxious times. This course presents a paradigm shift away from focussing on children, to focussing on what is in the parent’s capacity. Parents will gain insights into how they can best contribute to their child’s positive emotional health.
Please register now and make it priority to attend all 4 sessions to get the most out of this course.
