Summary

This trial tests a 5-week programme called the Lighthouse Parenting Effectiveness Enhancement Programme, designed to help parents who find parenting challenging. The programme includes weekly group sessions and individual coaching to teach psychological skills and improve parent-child relationships. Researchers will measure changes in parenting stress, parental mentalizing, and relationship quality. The study involves 68 parents of children aged 2 to 14.
