Unboxed Conversations:

PARENT AND TEEN WORKSHOP

How to talk about relationships, boundaries, and intimacy in a way that feels clear, direct, and actually workable.

Relationships, boundaries, pressure, and communication are already part of their world — but most families don’t have a clear way to talk about it without things shutting down, escalating, or getting avoided altogether.

Most teens are expected to navigate this without ever being taught how.

This isn’t a typical “sex ed” workshop

It’s a structured, conversation-based experience designed to help:

A more direct, real-world approach

The workshop

  • Parents feel more confident and clear

  • Teens understand boundaries, communication, and relationships

  • Both of you walk away with language that actually works in real life

Parent Workshop

Part 1: The Talk, Reframed

You’ll learn:

  • What teens actually need (and what tends to shut them down)

  • A clear framework you can use in real conversations

Includes up to two parents or guardians.

  • This is a two-part educational workshop designed to help parents and teens better understand communication, boundaries, and relationships.

    The parent workshop focuses on how to approach these conversations in a way that feels clear and natural, while the teen workshop (optional) focuses on helping teens navigate real-life situations with more confidence and awareness.

    This is not a traditional “sex ed” class. It’s more focused on how these topics actually show up in everyday life.

  • No. The parent workshop is designed to be valuable on its own.

    The teen workshop is an optional extension for families who feel it would be a good fit after attending.

  • The teen workshop is designed for high school students, typically ages 14–17.

    Content is tailored to what teens in this age range are already navigating in terms of relationships, communication, and social dynamics.

  • Topics include:

    • Boundaries and communication

    • Consent and understanding pressure

    • Navigating relationships and expectations

    • Emotional aspects of intimacy

    Content is presented in a developmentally appropriate and non-explicit way, with a focus on real-life situations rather than detailed instruction.

  • This workshop is a good fit for teens who are:

    • Navigating friendships, dating, or social pressure

    • Open to learning in a group setting

    • Able to engage respectfully

    If your teen is currently needing individualized support, therapy may be a better fit.

  • No. Participation is always optional.

    Teens are not required to share personal experiences, and the workshop is structured to focus on general situations rather than individual disclosures.

  • No. This is an educational workshop.

    It does not involve individualized advice, diagnosis, or counseling, and does not establish a therapist-client relationship.

  • That’s completely okay.

    Many parents choose to attend the parent workshop first and decide afterward whether the teen workshop feels like a good fit.

    You’ll have the option to enroll your teen at a later time.

  • Workshops are held in a small group setting at a Birmingham-area office, with a limited number of spots to keep the experience more comfortable and discussion-based.

  • Each session is approximately 75–90 minutes.

  • You’ll receive early access to workshop dates before they are released publicly.

    Spots will be limited, so those on the list will have the first opportunity to register.
