On December 1st 2025, Parenting Monaghan welcomed back Dr Mary O’Kane to Monaghan to give a talk on “School Based Anxiety and School Distress”.
Over 60 people walked through the door last week to listen to what Mary had to say!

One parent said: “I absolutely loved Mary O’Kane’s talk. She is so passionate and a fountain of knowledge on the topic. It was the perfect length of time and the venue was superb too. I was thrilled to have been given the opportunity to attend so thank you for organising the event.”
Another mentioned how “all spoken in layman’s terms and from one parent to another, with her personal experience”.
Feel free to get in touch with your suggestions for future guest speakers to come to Monaghan. Email Nadine: ntavey@midl.ie
