A New Perspective on Teen Friendships
Understand your teen’s social world - and support them with more clarity and more confidence over time
Many parents feel unsure how to respond when friendship struggles begin affecting their teen’s confidence, identity, or wellbeing.
These webinars help you understand what may be happening beneath the surface — and how to respond in ways that strengthen connection, trust, and resilience.
Where many parents begin:
Led by clinical psychologist Dr Mary Kaspar, alongside media personality Jess Farchione, The Friendship Project webinar series explores the real social pressures teens face - fitting in, exclusion, conflict, and change.
Parents often find these webinars help them to:
- better understand their teen’s social world
- respond in more grounded and supportive ways
- strengthen connection and trust
- feel more confident supporting their teen
Each webinar is approximately 20 minutes and available to watch anytime.
You can start with the topic most relevant to your family.
