Mother- Daughter Workshops

This workshop is meant to strengthen the mother - daughter connection. It helps them see the world from the others perspective, allows them to explore each other’s hope and dreams and feel heard. We learn skills to improve communication and encourage healthy productive sharing where both side feel heard and are getting their needs met. It is recommended to run the workshop with similar age daughters. To find out about setting up a workshop in your area, contact Tova Now.
