    Parenting Program Objectives

    Circle of Security Group Brisbane | Child Psychologist | Parenting Class

    At times all Brisbane parents feel lost or without a clue about what our child might need from us. Imagine what it might feel like if you were able to make sense of what your child was really asking from you. The Circle of Security® Parenting™ program is based on decades of research about how secure parent-child relationships can be supported and strengthened.


    Learning Objectives of the Training:

    • Understand your child’s emotional world by learning to read their emotional needs

    • Support your child’s ability to successfully manage emotions 

    • Enhance the development of your child's self esteem

    • Honor your innate wisdom and desire for your child to be secure


    Our trained facilitator will ensure the group is run in a mutually supportive environment, so you can safely share your values and experiences.


    We believe that consciously learning about how to optimise the connection between you and your child is a path to improved wellbeing.

    What to Expect at Circle of Security®

    It is recommended that caregivers arrange childcare for their children due to the nature of the therapeutic work covered. Parents/caregivers from Brisbane and surrounds with babies in arms or aged 12 months or younger are welcome. 

    This programme has been abbreviated, meaning the usual 8-week course has been condensed into two sessions to be more flexible for families and caregivers. The programme is also available for free during business hours through your local Child Health by calling 1300 366 039. No content is lost by completing this condensed  programme. 

    Parents/caregivers who attend may be eligible for a partial Medicare rebate. Please speak to our friendly staff for more information.   

    Parents/caregivers who require more intensive support, where group dynamics might be impacted, who are currently in crisis, experiencing severe mental health or substance abuse issues are also recommended to be referred externally to receive other, more appropriate, support services.
