Parenting Groups
Find support for your parenting journey with our parenting groups, meeting online and at the Direction Behavioral Health facility in Nashua.
Guests are welcome to attend!
We welcome parents of patients and guests to our parenting groups
We understand that supporting your child through their treatment can be challenging. To help, we offer dedicated Parenting Groups, both in person in Nashua, NH, and virtually. These groups equip you with the knowledge and emotional support needed to help your child thrive during their recovery.
Parenting group schedules
All parents are urged to participate in this group within the first week of their child’s membership.
The teen parenting group meets on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 5 PM – 6 PM, on-site. The child Parenting Group is virtual and meets on Thursdays from 12 -1 PM. Please call our office for the Zoom link.
How will the parenting group help me and my child?
There are a ton of benefits to joining our Parenting Group, including:
Most importantly, by participating in your child's treatment journey, you're sending a powerful message: that their well-being is your top priority and that they matter deeply.
Learn essential components of your child’s care
You’ll gain valuable insights into your child’s treatment here at Direction as we take the time to explore our comprehensive treatment model and the evidence-based practices that guide our approach. You’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions, engage in meaningful discussions, and learn practical strategies for supporting your child both during their time in treatment and beyond.
By becoming more informed, you’ll be better equipped to play an active, compassionate role in their healing process.
Wholeistic Education
We teach parents and guests about our
Wholeistic Education treatment model, which is our gold standard and informs all we do.
Leadership Principles
Our
Leadership Principles are the foundation of everything our clinical staff does, guiding our decisions, actions, and the way we engage with our clients. We’ll teach you how to apply them to your family as well.
Maximize the effectiveness of your child’s program
By attending our Parenting Groups, it will help maximize the effectiveness of your child’s time in our program by offering the opportunity to integrate our approach more fully in your home.
