Contextual Consulting - ACT for parents with Dr Chris McCurry: Helping caregivers stay grounded, connected, and values led under pressure

Bring acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) into your work with parents and caregivers. Get practical strategies to help parents support their children while building their own psychological flexibility.

You will learn:

• A clear way to formulate parent behaviour, drawing on ACT, child development, and temperament
• Language and metaphors that help parents see their own patterns without shame or defensiveness
• How the parent-child interactional loop works, and how small shifts change daily routines
• Ways to help parents slow down in the heat of the moment and respond thoughtfully
• ACT strategies for working with fear, guilt, frustration, and exhaustion
• Tools to help parents tolerate uncertainty, step out of power struggles, and stay connected to their children
• Approaches that position parents as active, supported partners in therapy

A recording of the sessions will be available in your account for 6 months post-workshop.
Designed for clinicians who work with parents/caregivers, including psychologists, psychiatrists, clinical social workers, and school counsellors. New to ACT? Start with our free introduction.
