Climate Parenting offers both group and individual coaching for parents concerned about the climate crisis.
-
Are you worried about the climate emergency and the destruction of the natural world?
​
-
Are you scared for your children’s future and unsure how to navigate your own feelings about it, let alone theirs as they grow up?
​
-
Are you keen to get involved in action to protect the world and defend your children’s future, but feel unsure about what you, as one individual, can usefully do?
​
-
​Are you already doing your part to tackle this crisis but want a community to support you or help to process your feelings so you can keep it up?
​
-
Do you feel alone and bemused as to why people around you don’t seem concerned?
​
-
Are you uncertain how best to influence those around you or how to involve your children in caring for the planet without scaring them?
​
If you can relate to any or all of the above and are considering parenthood, expecting a child or already a parent, carer, concerned relative or friend to a young child then you're in the right place.
Why Parents?
Becoming a parent is a time of huge adaptation with unique physical and emotional challenges, during which relationships with our children develop and existing relationships change. We may also face a barrage of new expectations – from ourselves or from others. It can be an isolating and exhausting time.
​
Being a parent also gives us a powerful, new connection to the future. The realisation that we are parenting the generation that will be most impacted by climate change can trigger a host of entirely natural emotions – anxiety, despair, guilt, inadequacy and/or an intense sense of responsibility.
