​​Metacognitive parenting course

The introduction will be relevant to you who can recognize this. It will also be relevant if your child is not motivated to be in therapy. It may also be relevant as a supplement to our children / youth groups in metacognitive therapy.

A study from the University of Copenhagen showed that mothers 'meta-assumptions were associated with their children's meta-assumptions and their level of anxiety 1 That is, parents' perceptions of worries, musings and strong emotions influenced the child's perception.

That you as a parent get a different relationship to the mind and get new tools for how to tackle negative thoughts and feelings can thus also have a beneficial effect on your children.
