Infant harm related thoughts when your child is neurodivergent
About this class
Do you ever lose your sh*t with your kids and then feel guilty? You are not alone! We all feel mum rage sometimes. Mothers of neurodivergent children face specific challenges and therefore may be more likely to experience rage.
Mum rage refers to the intense feelings of anger, frustration, and overwhelm experienced by mothers, often triggered by the demands and stresses of parenting. In this masterclass, clinical psychologist, Dr Caroline Boyd helps you understand the psychological factors behind these feelings and provides support to help you cope with and manage them effectively. Experiencing anger as a mother is normal, but it’s essential to find healthy ways to cope with and manage these feelings for your well-being and the well-being of your family.
