Are you facing challenges in communicating with your growing child and establishing a strong emotional bond?
Introducing the Emotion Coaching Workshop – a comprehensive one-day program designed to assist parents in developing and honing their Emotion Coaching parenting skills.
At its core, Emotion Coaching aims to empower children to understand and manage their emotions and behaviors effectively.

A One Day Workshop to Help You Parent
This psycho-educational workshop, developed by the esteemed Gottman Institute, is built upon two decades of groundbreaking research conducted by Dr. John Gottman, as documented in his influential book, “Raising an Emotionally Intelligent Child.” Dr. John Gottman is a globally recognized researcher and therapist renowned for his expertise in relationship stability.
Dr. John Gottman and his team have extensively studied the factors that differentiate children who thrive from those who face challenges. Their research examined various aspects, including academic performance, social interactions with peers, appropriate behavior in social settings, and parent-child relationships. The findings revealed a significant correlation between children who received Emotion Coaching from their parents and their long-term success in adulthood, particularly in areas such as forming friendships, achieving professional success, and academic accomplishments.
According to Gottman, parents who acted as Emotion Coaches played a pivotal role in helping their children comprehend their own emotions as well as the emotions of others. These parents imparted valuable skills to their children, enabling them to effectively manage their emotions in a positive manner and eventually develop the ability to regulate their own emotions and behavior.
In this concise one-day workshop, parents will gain access to evidence-based tools that foster the development of an Emotion Coaching approach to parenting. The workshop focuses on teaching and demonstrating the following key aspects:
