Good Enough Parenting
Workshop Series, London
‘Good enough Parenting’ uses movies, multimedia and group exercises to teach parents how to prevent schemas or lifetraps and meet their children’s core needs.
Dr Jeffrey Young, of the Dept of Psychiatry, Columbia University, USA and Founder, Schema Therapy says of this course:- “In a world of too much information, Good Enough Parenting uses movies to teach parents how to MEET CORE NEEDS, and, at the same time, how to avoid passing down their own dysfunctional behaviors. Schema Therapy has been successful with adults, but I have always wanted to see someone do something on preventing schemas, or Lifetraps, in children, and here it is!”
