Be Programme Application

Parenting Mental Health is excited to announce The Be Programme, a new 8-week course designed specifically for parents of children struggling with poor mental health. This course aims to enhance your self-confidence, strengthen your connection with yourself and equip you with practical self-care tools to navigate the challenges of parenting in these extraordinary circumstances.

The Be Programme is designed to reduce anxiety, foster a sense of belonging, and address common issues such as stress and burnout. You will engage in reflective practices like journaling and creative exercises, requiring no prior creative skills. The course also explores self-compassion, the dual roles of being a parent and a carer, and delves into topics like PTSD, trauma, and nervous system regulation.

Dates for 2025 are yet to be announced, if you complete this form you will be among the first to hear about available places.
