AT HOME PRESENTATIONS & WORKSHOPS

Invite Dr Heyworth to provide information sessions for parents.

Dr Heyworth’s enthusiasm is infectious as she brings a relaxed sense of humour and practical strategies to the serious issue of children’s emotions and behaviour. Over more than a decade,  she has run countless workshops and presentations for parents, foster carers, teachers, doctors and guidance officers.

Topic examples include:

  1. IT’S A JUNGLE: helps understand the link between emotions and behaviour, with practical strategies to use at home or school.
  2. ADOLESCENCE: looks inside the chaos and confusion of adolescence to understand their need for connection and support as they grow into adults.
  3. ANXIETY AND EVERYONE: covers how anxiety is natural in everyone and how experience can affect this (for better or worse), with practical strategies to help children collect a sense of safety and genuine confidence as they grow. 
  4. CONDITIONS: covers various mental health conditions that can make it more difficult for children to stay out of the jungle (e.g. ADHD, ASD, PTSD, RAD, Anxiety, language or learning disorders).

With options for half-day, full-day or 90-minute sessions, we can arrange a single session or you can book several in a sequence. Choose what suits your needs. We’re here to help.

Awesome stuff! Thank you for your words of wisdom. It was very helpful and practical. These principles are easy and very achievable.

Bernadette Dias

Thank you! As a parent and as a teacher, the jungle is now so much more obvious to me. Awareness! I gained a great deal from your presentation; this will help me at home and in the classroom.

Elizabeth Cain

The book is great. Best bit’s 5 mins in room with play things to calm, especially for kids with special needs.

Kerri O'Connor

I have been to many seminars as a carer, but this by far has been so helpful to help me understand the emotions of a little person both in care and out of care. As an adult who was a child in care, I get it! Thank you for taking the time to educate us Rangers of the jungle 🙂 Much appreciation and respect to you! 

Michelle Szczygielski

Well delivered. Makes sense. Wow, love the line / very close to line most times. Really made me look at myself. 

Donna French

Fantastic! Makes so much sense. Very simple, yet powerful. Perfect tool to set them up for life. Thanks 🙂 

Kathryn Arnold

Always a great presentation. Love it and it works!

Daphne Bryan

I read the book in one sitting. Common sense is alive and well! “It’s a Jungle” has brought together simple concepts to assist families and to allow adults to see what goes on in a child’s head. 

Lisa McGuire

Fabulous! Easy strategies to understand and apply. Love your book too. I wish more parents could access this type of information. 

Dani Blackburn

Very enlightening; well explained; good use of examples and visuals. Able to relate to personal experiences along the way and learn a different way of looking at it. 

Kristine Campbell

Wonderful training, very informative! I would love to have youth workers attend the training to apply to residential settings. Thank you! 🙂 Training makes a lot of sense, it’s clear and consistent, easy to remember and apply. 

Natasha Brookes

Very grounded and practical. A great way to look at the world. I hope I can stay on the right side of the line more! 

Rebecca Wiley

I have only just recently purchased this book. Best book ever. Slowly getting the hang of it all and Master 4 & a half just says to me, I love the fresh start!
