Unpacking the crisis in youth mental health
Our children are not ok.
Latest national statistics indicate that mental health challenges are at an all-time high in Australian children and youth. Anxiety, depression, and other mental health disorders are wreaking havoc in our schools and families (not to mention the amplification of these challenges if your child is neuro-diverse). Suicide and self-harm are rising. And finding the right support and good help is increasingly challenging.
Our kids and our families are at breaking point.
How do we know if our kids will be ok? What can we do to support their mental health and resilience? What's going wrong, and how do we fix it?
Join Dr Justin Coulson, Australia's leading parenting expert, as he unpacks the mental health crisis enveloping our kids. He'll cover:
The root causes behind the deteriorating state of mental health, and who (or what) is responsible
The tools you need to reverse this trend for your children
Science-backed, relationship-focused strategies to remedy school refusal
Realistic approaches for managing screen time in a way that protects your child's wellbeing without completely alienating them from their peers
Creating margin in your home and family life to protect and promote mental wellness

Developing strength, calm and kindness in our kids
“How can I help my child be more resilient?” is a question Dr Justin Coulson often hears from worried mums and dads.
In this session, parents will learn the psychological secrets that build their child’s sense of identity, strengths, and growth mindset in order to perform better, be happier, and build resilience.
Based on Dr Justin Coulson’s best-selling book 9 Ways to a Resilient Child, this session shows parents how to help their children cope powerfully and positively with the challenges that life throws at them.
This presentation is one of Justin’s most popular ones with powerful stories and illustrations that every parent can relate to. He explains the factors that help and hinder resilience, why common advice such as “toughen up Princess” just doesn’t work, and how competition and praise may undermine resilience.

As the world evolves, so do the ways children access information. 
It's crucial to understand that when it comes to sex, your child's curiosity may run deeper than you think. If they're not finding answers from you, they'll turn to other sources. 
But can you be sure that what they discover will be accurate, healthy, safe, and aligned with the values you wish for your child? How equipped are you to pre-emptively guide your kids through the topics of sex, consent and body autonomy?
Join Dr Justin Coulson for ‘Sex, Consent, & Staying Safe’ where you’ll learn:
✋ The importance of modelling and teaching consent, respect and boundaries to children of all ages - from babies, toddlers, right through to teens
👍 How to introduce these concepts in developmentally appropriate ways
🫶 What respect and true consent looks like
👂 How to establish a pattern of having the open conversations your child needs as they grow
Don't wait. Start these conversations today.

Since 2010 mood disorders in children and teens, like anxiety and depression, have been steadily rising. 
The rise of online gaming, Discord, Instagram, Snapchat, and TikTok has changed the way kids relate to one another. But it's also changed their expectations for one another - and themselves - and is associated with anxiety, perfectionism, bullying, and self-loathing. In short, our children are worried that they are not enough and their daily interactions with one another, their screens, and even with us, are reinforcing that fear.
In this webinar you’ll discover:  
why so many of our kids don’t feel enough   
how our best-intentioned efforts to help them feel enough backfire
solutions that shift your child's focus from worrying if they’ll ever be enough to no longer even thinking about it, and 
how to establish a relationship that leaves no doubt that they really are enough
