1-2-3 Magic & Emotion Coaching Practitioner Training

The 1-2-3 Magic™ & Emotion Coaching course is based on two underlying perspectives on parenting: first, children can be taught to respond more flexibly when they are frustrated or upset. Second, parents and carers can be taught easy-to-use skills they can use at particular parenting moments. As a practitioner, this course will provide you with the knowledge to conduct the 1-2-3 Magic™ & Emotion Coaching program - either as a three (two-hour) session parent education course or to teach the program one-on-one within a few clinical treatment sessions. You will leave with a comprehensive training manual with session-by-session guidelines and a CD slideshow to aid your presentation.

Please note that this course has been endorsed by the Australian Psychological Society for 7 generalist CPD hours.

The registration fee is $320 if paid by the early-bird date (3 weeks before the course), or $399 after that date. This fee includes am/pm refreshments, lunch and the presentation.

What course participants have said:

"I participated in the Townsville training for 123 Magic & Emotion Coaching and the Engaging Adolescents. I have since run the 123 Magic workshop with some remarkable results from the participants. As this was the first workshop I have run (which has gone for more than 1 hour) I would like to comment on how much I enjoyed ease of delivery (owing to the training provided by Michael Hawton and the easy to use manual and pdf ppt presentation). What a wonderful program." - Felicity Shipley

"An informative day. I'm full of new strategies and eager to hone my skills so I can now begin to implement the program with parents"

"If only I had know about it years ago as its simplicity was its beauty and I can't wait to share it with families to release them of unnecessary stress and emotion"

" Examples were most important to explain concepts. Enjoyed the friendly manner of the presenters. I believe the program answers a need for parents which is to build their confidence in their right to be parents."

"I was totally impressed with the format and the content of the course. I can see that it's going to be very useful for my clients and self."
