Even though the things that are happening and the behavior your child is showing aren’t your fault, you do have a role to play in it. And if your child comes back from wilderness into the exact same environment and you haven’t worked on anything while they were away, your family will most likely be back where you were before wilderness in no-time.

So what can you work on while your child is in wilderness or any other therapy program? And how do you go about this? That’s exactly what we’ll be talking about in today’s episode!

In this episode on what parents can work on while their child is in therapy, we cover:

• What to look for in wilderness programs when it comes to parent support;
• Realizing what you have control over and doing your work on that;
• Questions to ask yourself;
• The difference between roles and relationships;
• Working on how you want to show up as a parent and who you want to be in that relationship;
• Both parents getting on the same page; 
• And more!
