Parents
Helping parents by sharing information gathered over 25 years of experience working with thousands of young people around the country. Giving insight into how young people themselves feel they are coping with issues such as elf esteem, bullying, online behaviour, early sexualisation and more recently, gaming. Workshops and presentations are designed to help parents understand why their children may not be coming to them in times of crisis, helping them to build and grow that essential connection between themselves and their children at a time when many young people, while amassing hundreds of ‘friends’ online, are feeling more isolated than ever before.
Teachers
Most teachers work hours that stretch long past the 9-5 requirement. Many work at home and into the night to make sure their students have papers corrected, projects prepared and each day’s work laid out and ready to go. Stress and Anxiety seem to simply be a part of the job and many teachers suffer from early burn-out. Monica believes that burn-out should never be a part of the job. She works with teachers to help them get that Work/Life balance right and gives tips on how to manage the ‘never-ending’ TO DO LIST
