Tuning in to Teens parenting group - Term 3 (online)

Berry Street Family Services is offering the Tuning in to Teens (parenting program) once more in Term 3. It will run on Wednesdays from 11am – 1pm for 6 consecutive weeks, beginning 10th August and finishing on 14th September. We are delivering the group online, via Zoom.

For those of you that may be unfamiliar with the program, here are some key points and benefits:

• Interactive evidence-based parenting program developed by child psychologists from the University of Melbourne
• Supports caregivers to better attune to their teen’s emotions and support them with these through Emotion Coaching
• Supports caregivers to teach their teens how to better manage their emotions
• Can reduce isolation for caregivers through peer support
• Helps to prevent or reduce behaviour problems in teens through a more connected relationship with the caregiver
• Helps promote resilience in teens
