Dr Michael Carr-Gregg

Building Happy & Resilient Tween Girls

With Dr Michael Carr-Gregg
Tuesday 29 March 7pm – 8.30pm

This is the first in our 2022 Parent Series, we welcome back one of Australia’s highest-profile psychologists Dr Michael Carr-Gregg. This must-see session will give parents the tools to manage the burning issues of wellbeing, navigating friendships, the use of technology and dealing with anxiety. Parents will learn positive communication strategies to use as your daughter moves towards the tween and teenage years.

The research shows that over 60% of parents lack confidence in their parenting (Australian Childhood Foundation) and we know that it is particularly stressful with teenagers.

Dr Carr-Gregg presents parents with paradigms for effective evidence-based communication with tweens and teenagers, and we give 10 strategies to build resilience in children and young people. In addition, Dr Carr-Gregg provides the latest evidence-based strategies to build resilience in families.

Dr Justin Coulson

A Blueprint for Better Parenting

With Dr Justin Coulson
Monday 16 May 7pm – 8.30pm

This is the second in our Parent Series, we are excited to welcome Dr Justin Coulson for the first time at CLC. Dr Justin Coulson is the co-host and parenting expert on Channel 9’s “Parental Guidance”, the founder of happyfamilies.com.au, and one of Australia’s most trusted parenting experts.

Is there a ‘right’ way to parent? Researchers have been investigating this question since the 1950’s, and volumes of research tells us that while everyone will do it differently, there are certain things that the best parents do that are linked to the very best outcomes in children. While there are several parenting ‘styles’, there is actually only one that is measurably better than all the rest.

In this presentation Dr Justin Coulson, Australia’s leading parenting expert, will share the science and the practice of the very best parenting style, and identify specific strategies that parents can practice to change their family for the better. You’ll learn:

the evidence-based pros and cons of the most popular parenting styles
the 3 research-founded principles that underscore the very best parenting style
skills and habits the best parents practice to follow the best parenting style in their families
ideas for adapting the best parenting style for optimal results for younger and older children, and children with additional needs.

This session is perfect for parents with daughters in Grades 4 – 6.
