Participants diagnosed with a bipolar condition are expected to be in treatment with a therapist, psychiatrist, and/or psychiatric nurse and have symptoms under control.
Raising Depression-Free Children
Based on Kathleen’s book, this six-week class is designed for parents of children aged toddler to pre-teen. Topics include how to teach children critical thinking and social skills, how to encourage emotional flexibility, and how to foster an anti-depressant core. Also included is information about the specific ways parental depression affects a child's risk for mood and behavioral difficulties and what can be done about it besides, “seek treatment”.
Each class includes a presentation, group discussion, handouts, and suggestions for practice at home.
