This support group has been developed for parents of middle schoolers struggling with ADHD, anxiety, mood disorders and learning challenges. Over the 10-week course, parents will increase their understanding of their child’s emotional needs, while also learning how to communicate for more effective family relationships and a safe and healthy home environment. Parents will gain more understanding of their child’s specific challenges and how these challenges present themselves at home and at school. This group is designed as a safe space where parents will be able to safely share their concerns and frustrations with parenting with other parents in a similar boat.
