Parent Support

You’ve been providing the most important aspects of "the talk" since birth: modeling respectful and caring relationships, communicating about feelings and needs, talking about public vs private and taking care of basic health needs. With a little support, you’ll be ready to tackle the toughest subjects with kindness, nuance, compassion and respect.

Individual and group coaching is available for parents

Most individuals remember "the talk" their parents had with them as both uncomfortable and ineffective. Without good models to follow, many parents avoid the topic entirely, hoping their children get the necessary information somewhere else. In this era of information overload, children will find answers to their questions using the resources available: friends, the internet, and pornography. Unfortunately, the answers they get are likely to provide misinformation which will (at best) confuse, and (at worst) provide a basis for potentially dangerous decisions.

With a bit of coaching and some effective tools, parents are empowered to support their children with compassionate and honest sexual health information that won't leave anyone with horror stories. When you learn how to establish a culture of openness, information and respect in your home, you just might find your relationship with your child grows stronger and and more trusting. 

INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP COACHING SESSIONS ARE AVAILABLE

Presentations for parent organizations and schools can be tailored to meet the needs of the specific population.
