SUMMARY:Theraplay Level 1 & MIM – Perth – 2 Tickets Only
DESCRIPTION:Theraplay Level 1 & MIM \nTheraplay® is an evidenced-based\, attachment-focused intervention utilising non-symbolic\, interactional play to re-create experiences of secure attachment formation between parent and child. Therapist-guided short-term\, dyadic therapy focuses on improving the child’s behavioural and emotional challenges through the parent-child relationship. In a session\, the therapist guides the parent and child through playful games\, challenging activities\, and nurturing interactions. Theraplay® helps the child experience previously difficult interactions in new ways\, helps overcome fear/ shame\, increase trust\, and create a positive change in the child’s sense of self. Theraplay® helps the parent be attuned to the child\, understand the motives of the child’s behaviour and the underlying needs\, manage environmental stimuli\, and carefully challenge their child in a safe place. While other therapies may work primarily with the child alone or work with parents on managing the child’s behaviours\, Theraplay® has shown that the parent-child relationship is the most powerful and influential element for change. It is also a complementary approach to Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy (developed by Dan Hughes). \nTheraplay® has been used successfully to help: \n\nChildren with developmental trauma\nShy\, withdrawn children\nOveractive\, controlling or aggressive children\nFoster/adoptive children with attachment difficulties\nChildren with Autism Spectrum Disorder & Pervasive Development Disorder\nChildren with physical disabilities\, developmental delays or those who are non-verbal\nChildren who live in group settings\nEarly childhood students and others who receive services in group settings\n\nYou will learn: \n\nHistory\, core concepts & evidence base of Theraplay®\nThe four dimensions of Theraplay®: Structure\, Engagement\, Nurture & Challenge. Undertake activities for each of the dimensions\nAdminister the Marshack Interaction Method (MIM) & analyse it at a beginning level\nConduct feedback sessions with parents based upon the MIM analysis\nUse the MIM as a guideline for Theraplay® treatment planning\nObserve demonstrations of Theraplay® treatment and techniques\nPractice Theraplay® activities in dyads\nIdentify the types of behaviours that require a particular dimension\nUtilise the four Theraplay® dimensions to treat the specific needs of a child\nHow Theraplay® is applied to meet the needs of children with behaviour problems\, foster and adopted children\, children with ASD\, & older children\nHow to guide parents to participate in a Theraplay® treatment session\n\nThis four-day workshop is for practitioners wanting to use Theraplay® Informed Practice in their work and is suitable for practitioners working with children and families ranging from Psychologists\, Psychiatrists\, Social Workers\, Clinical Counsellors\, Family Therapists\, Counsellors\, Play Therapists\, Special Education & Early Childhood Specialists\, Teachers\, Occupational Therapists\, Speech and Language Therapists\, Residential Care Workers and Foster Support Workers. \nParticipants are referred to the Theraplay® book which underpins the approach (and advised to read chapters 1\, 2 & 4 prior to attending). \nTRAINERS \n

SUMMARY:Emotion Coaching – Brisbane
DESCRIPTION:Watch video \n\nPromoting Positive Behaviour\, Wellbeing and Resilience \nEmotion Coaching is a universal communication strategy based on research by US Psychologist Dr John Gottman (1996) which supports children and young people to self-regulate and manage their stress responses. Gottman observed that children who thrive in their emotional and social development have parents who respond positively to the behaviour of the children\, who helped their child to understand the different emotions they experience\, why they occur and how to handle them. These children were better able to control their impulses and delay gratification\, self soothe when upset\, have better attentional capacity and increased motivation\, performed better academically and were better able to function in social relationships. \nExtensive research has established the characteristics of adult responses that lead to emotional health in children. Emotion Coaching (EC) uses moments of heightened emotion and resulting behaviour to guide and teach the child and young person about more effective responses. Inappropriate behaviours are not condoned in Emotion Coaching and when the child is calmer\, incidents are discussed in a more rational and productive manner.  Moves are made to problem solve and engage in solution-focused strategies. Through repetitive\, consistent and empathetic engagement the child’s emotional state is verbally acknowledged and validated\, promoting a sense of security and feeling ‘felt’.  This activates changes in the child’s neurological system and allows the child to calm down\, physiologically and psychologically. The key elements involved in Emotion Coaching are: \n\nBecoming aware of the child’s emotions\nRecognising the emotion as an opportunity for intimacy and teaching\nListening empathetically\, validating the child’s feelings\nHelping the child find words to label the emotion\nSetting limits and explore strategies to solve the problem at hand.\n\nThese strategies can be learned by parents and indeed anyone who interacts with children young people when they struggle to control their emotional responses. Emotion Coaching has been shown to be highly successful in schools (primary and secondary) and community settings. Research by Emotion Coaching UK (ECUK) took Gottman’s five elements of Emotion Coaching and developed a school friendly program that uses a four step framework to help engender emotional resilience\, empathy and problem-solving skills within children and young people. Following successful pilot projects in UK schools\, Emotion Coaching has now been communicated to education professionals\, health and social care workers\, educational psychologists and GPs in the UK\, Europe\, Asia and Australia. \nThe workshop includes evidence-based research and practical tips\, with signposting to resources\, case studies and vignettes to illustrate its practical application in parenting support and educational settings. It supports adults to promote empathetic responses to challenging behaviours and situations\, helping children and young people to understand their emotions and learn to manage them and their behaviour in the longer-term. The workshop covers the following: \n\nCritical overview of recent neuroscientific evidence on how best to support children and young people’s self-regulation\nInsights into the stress-response and social engagement systems\, attachment and the foundations for emotional regulation\, positive behaviour and well-being\nResearch for evidence-based Emotion Coaching practice\nPractical exercises and skill development in Emotion Coaching techniques\n\nIncluded in the price of the workshop is the opportunity to attend a subsequent online coaching workshop ‘‘Reflecting on your Emotion Coaching Practice’. These workshops usually take place within a month of the initial training\, allowing participants to ‘have had a go’. The 1.5 hour workshops via Zoom offer participants the chance to: \n\nShare successes and challenges of using Emotion Coaching (EC)\nEngage in discussions to develop EC in practice\nReview personal and collective EC understanding\nExplore the complexities and challenges of EC\n\nPresenter: Licette Gus\, co-founder of Emotion Coaching UK is an Educational Psychologist and Secondary School Teacher with over 20 years’ experience working for government and the private sector across the Australia and the United Kingdom (UK).  Licette coordinated the evaluation of the Targeting Mental Health in Schools (TaMHS) one for local authority in the UK. Licette has delivered presentations on Emotion Coaching for national and international conferences as well as Professional Development Events across the UK and has been a guest presenter on the Educational Psychology Professional Training Course at the University of Birmingham and the MA course at Oxford Brookes University.  She has delivered Emotion Coaching training and projects to schools parents and organisations in the UK and internationally. She has researched applying Emotion Coaching in educational settings\, written about how to implement Emotion Coaching in Schools and the impact of Emotion Coaching on pupil\, staff and family well-being for various publications in the UK. Licette is co-author of Emotion Coaching with Children and Young People in Schools \nDOWNLOAD FLIER \n\n
