Aware Parenting Teenagers Course

Bringing awareness, connection and love to parenting your teens

I have created this course to support parents to explore the theory and practice of Aware Parenting and how it applies specifically to parenting in the teenage years. It is an in-depth journey into how this life-changing approach helps us to develop close and healthy relationships with our teens. Whether you are new to Aware Parenting or have been practising this in your family for some time, this deeply supportive course will guide you to have more ease, connection and fun in parenting your teens.

The teenage years bring their own unique set of challenges to parenthood, and I believe that Aware Parenting has the answers to whatever you are facing in your family. The strategies to support our teens are mostly simple, but applying them can be very challenging and there are so many layers and factors to consider. This course will support you to navigate your way through the challenges and find the solutions that work best for your family.

If you are struggling with the teen years you are not alone. This course will turn conflict into connection and turbulence to trust, transform grumpy arguments into empathic acknowledgements, and convert stress, fear and disconnection into compassionate, loving relationships with your teenagers.

The course is based on the aspects and principles of Aware Parenting by Aletha Solter, Ph.D.
