Insights for Mothers

A 10 week programme to help mothers understand how their relationships have impacted both themselves and their children. Aided by highly experienced psychotherapists in a confidential atmosphere, mothers will learn to understand their children’s challenging behaviours, and how to support and communicate effectively with them.

I found the complete course, such an influence and big help to me and my situation and a big help in how to deal with certain situations.

It has given me very valuable insights; I learned so much from the course material but most of all from all the women. Eye opening, painful and life changing! I feel more clear, more in contact with myself- more empowered.

Given me more confidence. Assured me I’m not alone. This happened and there is recovery.

I understand life and how to live, staying safe, how to be treated.

I don’t feel like I’m going through this journey alone. This course has given me techniques and goals to help me through this journey and hopefully see it to the end. Was great overall and made some new friends.

It has made me become a better version of me.

Have different outlook on life, free to choose, It wasn’t my fault.

Helped me change, gave me strength to move on and be me.

It has helped me believe in myself, to know it wasn’t my fault and I’m not alone.
