Dr. Blackwood, a mental health professional, author, and keynote speaker, is dedicated to empowering parents in nurturing growth and healing within their relationships with their children through coaching and workshops.
With a wealth of experience and qualifications, including a Masters of Divinity and Counseling, as well as a Doctorate of Ministry in marriage and family, Dr. Blackwood has graced television screens on shows like 100 Huntley Street and the 700 Club Canada.
Our discussion delved into the timely and vital topic of parenting through anxiety. Dr. Blackwood illuminated the myriad factors contributing to the surge in anxiety levels among parents and children, including parenting styles, multi-generational genetics, societal issues, and intergenerational transmission.
Emphasizing the importance of parental self-awareness and understanding, Dr. Blackwood underscored the significance of modeling healthy emotional regulation for children. He shared essential steps for navigating intense emotions, urging parents to cultivate mindfulness, practice responsiveness over reactivity, and strive for intentional, peace-centered responses.
