Non-Violent Resistance (NVR)

The programme aims to provide parents with skills to use when they experience child-to-parent violence in their home. We work together to empower and support you in preventing and responding to violent and controlling behaviours from your child or teenager.

Child-to-parent violence encompasses a wide range of abusive behaviours including aggression, intimidation, acts of physical violence and controlling behaviours.

There is an emphasis on influencing change in the relationship through increasing positive parental presence and de-escalation.

The programme would last for a minimum of 6 weeks, sessions would be held weekly and last for up to an hour. The sessions are for parents only. Ideally, both parents would attend but if you are a single parent you may like to bring a friend or relative along to support you.

I have trained with the Partnership Project and have successfully worked with couples and single parents.

I approach this work without judgement and in a compassionate manner. Being a parent is hard, and society has high expectations of us, but many people experience child-to-parent violence, so you are not alone. Reaching out for support is a positive step towards change.

If you wish to arrange a telephone call to help determine whether working together would be a good fit for you, I would be pleased to offer a free 15 minute consultation prior to the first session.
