Here's to prioritising mental health this holiday season. 🎄🎁💫🫶

Millennials are rewriting the rules of parenting. Over two-thirds of this generation report that they are actively trying to reparent themselves while raising their own children.

Reparenting is the process of revisiting childhood wounds, learning healthy coping mechanisms, and giving yourself the guidance or support you may have missed as a child. For many millennial parents, this happens simultaneously with the day-to-day demands of raising their kids.

Experts note that this dual approach can be both challenging and transformative. Parents are not only shaping their children’s emotional development, but also addressing their own unmet needs and patterns. By modeling self-awareness and emotional regulation, they can break cycles of trauma and create healthier family dynamics.

Being aware of your own emotional growth while parenting isn’t easy. It requires reflection, patience, and sometimes professional support. Yet the payoff is profound: children benefit from parents who understand themselves better, communicate more effectively, and create emotionally safe environments.

This is the first generation in history experiencing both forms of parenting at once. Millennials are simultaneously raising their children and themselves.

Your Role as a Parent in Play Therapy 💛

As a parent, your support is central to your child’s therapeutic journey. 🌱

🔹 Your child may choose to keep what happens in their sessions private – this is normal. They might not have the words to explain yet.
🔹 Play Therapists keep session details confidential but can share general themes, patterns, and topics so you can support your child at home.
🔹 There’s no need to expect ‘good’ behaviour in sessions – therapy is a safe space for free expression, without judgement.

When you choose a Play Therapist listed on the Play Therapy UK Accredited Register, you can be assured they meet the highest professional standards. Our register is the first of its kind – independently overseen and accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA), the body that protects the public by ensuring quality and safety across health and social care: https://zurl.co/lxqe4

This means your child’s therapist:
✅ Holds a Level 7 postgraduate qualification in Play Therapy (https://zurl.co/7G8zP)
✅ Has membership with PTUK – a professional body regulated by the PSA
✅ Receives mandatory monthly clinical supervision
✅ Completes ongoing safeguarding training and yearly CPD specific to play therapy
✅ Follows GDPR compliance standards
