Workshops

There are several different types of courses/workshops that are available to assist you to improve the quality of your life.

I. 6 Week Parenting Course Renee has developed a unique parenting course for children under the age of ten. It runs for 2 hours, every week for 6 weeks and is works best if couples attend together.

Every week, Renee focuses on  a different aspect of parenting which will enhance your relationship with your child, improve your ability to work with your spouse, increase your child’s self esteem and give you tools to discipline and gain cooperation with the least amount of anger or tears. Renee has been delivering this course since 1989 and knows what works and what parents find useful.

Here is what one had to say:

“I totally enjoyed this course, I feel more confident as a parent, and know that my husband and I are on the right track. I learnt that it’s ok to say “NO” and that we should constantly use positive reinforcement.” Danielle

No dates have been finalised for 2011. However, if you are interested in attending please call  to reserve your place on 93285899 or via email – click here. If you would like to organise a group of your  friends, minimum 5 couples, Renee will offer the course at a venue of your choice. The investment is $520 per person. Medicare rebates and private health rebates are available (conditions apply).

II. Parenting teenagers. Renee has developed a 3 session course for parents of adolescents. Again couples benefit most when they attend together. The first week focuses on understanding your teenager, her moods, developmental cycle and needs. The second session teaches self -determination theory which stresses the importance of allowing your teenager to have a voice and be autonomous while you still maintain your role as the supportive guide. This maximises your teenager’s  development into a functional adult. The third session gets you to pinpoint your own values and to apply the principles you have learnt to your own specific family.

Here is feedback from  a participant of the November 2010 course:

“I came away with more information than I began with, learnt how to enjoy my children and that many of the things that I do are positive. “Lindy
