The parent chapter includes tips on becoming your child’s secure home base, listening skills, reconnecting with your child, helping your child to navigate social media use and more.

“Hi Nicola! I don’t know if you remember doing a few sessions a few years ago but I was one of the teens there. Since then, I’ve gone through one hell of a self discovery journey and I think the sessions you did truly placed myself on the correct path to start that. Since then, I’ve come out as transgender, I’ve come to find myself. All I can really say is thank you, but seriously, I think you probably unknowingly saved my life. Thank you.”
If something here resonates with you, I’d love to hear from you.
