Are you coming to terms with your child being trans or non-binary?
Are you worried about how the world will treat them?
Are you grappling with questions that are hard to articulate or that you feel you can't ask?
This workshop will provide you support and information to help you find greater clarity and understanding of both your own experience as well as potentially that of your child.
We will explore:
- The most common feelings and thoughts of parents, at the early stages of their journey.
- Why is it so hard?
- One of the biggest mistakes parents make as they try to protect their trans child with limited support for themselves
- Why disconnection is so common right when everyone needs each other the most.
- What makes the difference, for you and your child.
Your Presenter
Hi, my name is Ari Heart (they/them).
I am a therapist, educator, parent, and a trans non-binary person.
I have been supporting trans people and their families to navigate the various stages of their journeys for many years.
Throughout my work, I have continuously seen the urgent need for parents to receive high-quality and compassionate information and support when their child is gender diverse.
I not only care deeply about the outcomes for trans people, but I am also determined to support their families to find a greater sense of understanding, ease and connection.
I have seen, again and again, what is possible for families when parents are supported with good, accessible and nuanced information, delivered with empathy for the challenges of parenthood.
