INTRODUCING 🌿 The Brazen Bloom Bundle: A Parenting Program for Supporting Emotional Regulation and Behaviour in Kids 🌿

We’re excited to announce The Brazen Bloom Bundle, a Parenting Support Program designed to help you navigate challenging behaviours and big emotions in your child with practical, evidence-based strategies and clear processes that promote self-regulation and emotional growth.

Delivered over two separate 50 minutes sessions (booked at your convenience), the program can be offered face-to-face or online and provides support to help you:

• 💡 Build insight and awareness into your child’s emotions and behaviour through a scientific and compassionate lens
• 🧩 Follow a structured, practical process for managing challenging behaviour—removing the guesswork and creating consistency and security for your child
• 🤝 Learn emotion coaching techniques to co-regulate effectively, even in the face of big emotions
• 🧭 Identify your parenting values and reflect on your current responses to guide intentional, goal-aligned parenting
• 🎯 Customise support for your child’s individual needs, including neurodivergent children

The program draws on leading evidence-based parenting frameworks and is tailored to support real-world parenting challenges.

✨ Several parents who’ve already participated have shared that their child’s emotional regulation and behaviour improved within weeks of applying the strategies.

☀️🌱When we welcome you into the therapy space at Brazen Bloom we want you to feel safe, seen, and supported—just as you are. Our space is designed to be a place where kids and teens can show up authentically, explore their emotions, and build confidence in their own stories.

Kelsey has been supporting young people at Brazen Bloom for the past three years, bringing warmth, curiosity, and a deep respect for each child and teen’s unique experience. She blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with Narrative Therapy to help clients navigate big feelings, life transitions, and challenges in a way that aligns with their values and strengths.

Through ACT, she helps clients learn to sit with difficult emotions rather than feeling overwhelmed by them. Narrative Therapy allows them to step outside of problems, reframe their experiences, and build a sense of agency in their own story. With Kelsey, kids and teens are empowered to embrace who they are and move forward with confidence.

If you’re looking for a compassionate space for your child or teen to grow, we’d love to welcome you to Brazen Bloom.

Is Your Child Struggling, and You’re Not Sure How to Help?

You’ve tried everything—gentle conversations, firm boundaries, extra patience—but something still feels off 😩. Maybe your child is:

✨Is your child finding the back-to-school transition difficult? 🎒💭

👧🏻👦🏻 👧🏾You’re not alone—many kids struggle with changes in routine, separation anxiety, or school-related worries.

📜Below is a helpful script for parents to acknowledge and validate their child’s nervousness before school, while also offering them support in managing the emotion. 👇🏼

⭐️”It makes sense that you’re feeling worried right now. It’s completely okay to feel this way. Sometimes, we feel worried about things that matter to us, and that’s exactly what you’re feeling right now. I get worried too when I go back to work after a long break. Change can be tricky, and it’s normal to feel this way. Which calming strategy would you like to try practice to help you calm this feeling?”⭐️

The language encourages children to accept their uncomfortable feelings, rather than avoiding them or allowing them to intensify.

This script also helps to normalise the emotion, which helps children understand that it’s okay to experience discomfort.

🧑‍🧒Additionally, by sharing that you too feel nervous in similar situations, you model emotional acceptance and create a sense of shared understanding.

This approach also demonstrates that you can hold space for difficult their emotions without judgment or panic. It’s a powerful way to help your child build emotional resilience and develop healthier ways of coping.

✨OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) in kids is often misunderstood and overlooked in clinical settings due to its nuanced and complex nature. Many children go years without receiving the proper therapy they need to address it.

❔❔Known as “the doubting disorder,” OCD is driven by intrusive thoughts and compulsions designed to reduce anxiety. It’s also ranked as one of the top 10 most debilitating mental health conditions worldwide, according to the World Health Organisation.

📚At Brazen Bloom, we specialise in targeting and treating OCD in children using evidence-based approaches that work. Our process has helped countless kids break free from the cycle of obsessions and compulsions, leading to meaningful and lasting change.

🌟 Last week, we had the honour of facilitating our final Stop, Think, Go workshop for the kids at Lemonade Kids Winter Camp this year! 💫

👩🏻‍🤝‍👩🏼It was particularly special to team up again with Kelsey, who had recently returned from maternity leave. It felt amazing for us to be back in action together, guiding and inspiring the kids.

The children were an absolute delight to work with—engaged and interactive throughout our sessions. We explored the importance of making decisions and behavioural choices that resonate with their core values, using the Stop Think Go strategy for impulse control.

📲Parents, if your child is facing challenges with emotional regulation, we’re here to support you. Visit www.brazenbloom.com.au to schedule a free 30-minute phone consultation.
