Emotion Coaching – The Heart of Parenting
Research over the past 20 years that has found that children who have been Emotion Coached by their parents were more successful as an adult in areas such as peer friendships, employment and academic achievement. The key to helping children be successful now and into the future is helping to grow their emotional intelligence. How parents connect with their kids and the quality of their communication is pivotal to Emotion Coaching.
This is our one-day Workshop with it’s core aim to help parents of children between the ages of 3-18 years to connect with their children. You will learn the importance of emotional intelligence; how to understand and validate your child’s emotions, and how to coach them through these emotions and managing their behaviours.
Presenters: Kerrie & Adrian Lumbewe
Kerrie and Adrian, your presenters, have been married since 2008, they are both Principal Psychologists, and Directors in their two psychology practices (Motivating Marriages Psychology and Motivating Minds Psychological Practice). They are both extremely stubborn, both right about everything – even though they don’t agree on everything! They really love each other, can really fight with each other and are deeply committed to marriage both personally and professionally.
Can you just imagine the psycho-analysis flying around behind their closed doors!
Together they have a combined 30 years of clinical experience, they have both completed Levels 1, 2 and Level 3 Practicum Training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy, and use Gottman Method Couples Therapy in their work with clients (and with each other!)
