About this Event

Workshop for Parents: "Supporting your child with anxious and emotional meltdowns"

When your child is in the middle of an anxious, angry, or emotional breakdown, it can be hard to know what to do—or not do. This practical, supportive workshop is designed to help parents understand what's really going on in those intense moments, and how to respond in ways that calm rather than escalate.

Led by Laura Carswell, child mental health expert and founder of 'Huge Little Minds', this standalone session will cover:

  • What happens in your child’s brain and body during emotional overwhelm
  • Why common reactions (even well-meaning ones) can make things worse
  • What not to do in the heat of the moment
  • Simple, effective strategies you can use to help your child feel safe and supported
  • Space for discussion, questions, and shared experience with other parents

This is a relaxed and informal session—come as you are, bring your questions, and leave with greater confidence in how to support your child through emotional storms.
