About the Event
Description: Every child who experiences the child welfare system has some level of trauma. Understanding the biology of trauma allows us to be better prepared to work with our children. Christy has extensive experience working with children in both inpatient and outpatient mental health. She works with parents and caregivers to help children be successful. The intensity of feelings for both the parent and child can be overwhelming. This training will add strategies to your toolbox for working with children in highly emotional situations.
The goal of this training is to help you:
1. Identify at least two strategies (or more) you feel you could implement.
2. Identify when a child is dysregulated, know what part of the brain is working and how best to communicate with the child.
The presentation will last for one hour and the remaining time will be open for questions.
