Understanding Anxiety in Children and Teens  - A 3-Hour Deep Dive for Parents

Anxiety is one of the most common challenges children and young people experience today, yet it can be confusing, overwhelming and sometimes misunderstood by the adults around them. In this supportive and interactive three-hour session, we will slow things down together and make sense of what anxiety really is, why it shows up, and how it can look at different ages and stages.

We’ll explore how anxiety may appear in children and teenagers, including school-based anxiety, social anxiety and separation anxiety, helping parents move from worry and frustration to understanding and confidence. Rather than focusing on “fixing” anxious behaviour, this session centres connection, compassion and co-regulation as the foundations for helping young people feel safer and more secure.

You will leave with a clearer understanding of your child’s nervous system, practical ideas for responding to anxious moments, and a more hopeful sense of how to walk alongside your child when anxiety shows up. This session is ideal for parents who want to deepen their understanding, feel more equipped, and build a calmer, more connective approach to supporting their child through anxiety.

Managing Meltdowns - A Connective Parenting Deep Dive

This 3-hour deep dive will help you to better understand what meltdowns really are, why they happen, and how to respond in ways that reduce escalation and protect connection. Grounded in Connective Parenting NVR and nervous-system-informed practice, the session focuses on adult regulation, calm presence, and practical strategies that can be used in real life.

Come and join us for an overview of what Connective Parenting NVR is and how it can help your family.
