After a successful Scottish pilot throughout 2022 involving over 70 parents, Shared Parenting Scotland are pleased to launch the New Ways For Families® training programme, available to all parents.
The course is priced at £295, with subsidised places for parents on low income or benefits. Option to pay in three instalments also available. The course incorporates interactive, online elements with three one-to-one coaching sessions with coaches who are experienced family professionals.
New Ways For Families® is an approach that has been developed by the High Conflict Institute in the USA. The course was created by Bill Eddy, based on his experience as a family lawyer, mediator and family therapist.
It focuses on four key behavioural skills that actively help separating parents control at least their own part in high conflict: managing emotions; moderating behaviour; developing flexible thinking; and cheking yourself.
Watch the video below to hear more about how the four key skills can help you co-parent effectively.
