Circle of Security (online)

Circle of Security (COS) is an early intervention parenting program delivered over eight two (8x2) hour sessions to assist you to become more aware of and responsive to your children’s emotional needs.

Imagine what it might feel like if you were able to make sense of what your child was really asking from you!

The COS Program is based on decades of research about how secure adult to child relationships can be supported and strengthened when they:

• Understand a child’s world by learning to read the emotional cues and needs.
• Support a child's ability to successfully manage emotions.
• Enhance the development of a child’s self-esteem, resilience, and their ability to thrive.

Note:
You must reside in Western Australia to participate.
Participants will receive a certificate upon attendance of all eight sessions.

Tuning into Kids

Do you want to get to know and understand your child better?
Tuning in to kids will show you how to develop your emotional connection between you and your kids. 

Specifically focusing on the developmental needs of kids, integrating a greater focus on acceptance/empathy, and helping parents and carers to manage their own responses when kids reject or push them away as the young person seeks greater autonomy.

The aim of this workshop is for adults to:

• Identify, label, and understand their own emotions
• Successfully use emotions during social interactions
• Use emotional awareness to guide oneself when solving problems and with conflict
• Deal with frustrations and be able to wait to get what they want
• Keep distress from overwhelming the ability to think
• Be in control of how and when to express feelings

Registration is essential.
