Parent Burnout & Child Mental Health: How to Support Without Falling Apart

About this Workshop

Parenting a child with mental health issues is incredibly tough—and you don’t have to do it alone.

If you’ve ever asked, “Is this normal or something more?” or wondered, “Should I step in—or step back?” you’re not alone. Many parents feel overwhelmed trying to support a child in therapy or facing mental health struggles or even wondering if my child needs more help?

You’ll learn how to:

  • Create an emotionally supportive home environment
  • Recognize when your child may need more support
  • Distinguish between setbacks and progress in treatment
  • Play a meaningful role in your child’s therapy
  • Use evidence-based strategies to avoid parental burnout
  • Repair and strengthen your relationship through honest connection

Let’s stop parenting from panic mode—and start from a place of compassion, clarity, and connection. Your support can be a powerful part of your child’s healing.
