This training package provides the full Level 1 and Level 2 training pathway required to become an Accredited Parent Hope Clinician. You’ll have 9 months to work through the foundation courses, Level 1 and Level 2 professional training, with opportunities to practise, access case examples, join reflective practice mentoring and develop your confidence in applying the Parent Hope approach.

Developed by Dr Jenny Brown through clinical practice and research, the intervention is grounded in Bowen Family Systems Theory and supports parents to become more thoughtful and active participants in their family system — shifting their focus from fixing the child towards understanding and changing their own part in relationship patterns.

Is this training for you?

The complete Level 1 & 2 pathway is designed for professionals who work with children, parents and families and want to develop a stronger parent-inclusive, family systems approach to their practice.

You will develop your understanding of the family systems thinking behind the Parent Hope approach, learn to deliver the Parent Hope Manualised Clinical Intervention, build your capacity to support parent agency, self-regulation and thoughtful leadership. 

Completing this training will meet all the requirements to getting an Accredited Clinician Membership.
