In this workshop, you will:

--Learn DBT-based tools to manage your own stress and respond effectively to your child’s emotional reactions.

--Gain strategies for reducing family conflict and setting clear, compassionate boundaries during the holiday season.

--Gain tools to reduce holiday overwhelm. Walk away with a personalized family holiday plan that prioritizes mental wellness, emotional regulation, and meaningful connection
