SUMMARY:Theraplay Level 1 & MIM - Sydney
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 \nTheraplay® has been used successfully to help: \n\nChildren with developmental trauma\nShy\, withdrawn children\nOveractive\, controlling or aggressive children\nFoster/adoptive children with attachment difficulties\nChildren with Autism Spectrum Disorder &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). \nTHERAPLAY BOOKS & RESOURCES \nTRAINERS \n

SUMMARY:HEY WARRIOR!
DESCRIPTION:Anxiety explained.  Kids empowered! \nAnxiety is a very normal human response but for as many as 1 in 5 young people\, the symptoms become so intrusive\, they significantly interfere with day to day living. The effects can steal into families\, classrooms and friendships. They can undermine the way children see themselves and shrink their world – but it doesn’t have to be this way. Anxiety is very manageable when it is recognised and properly managed. With the right support children can be empowered with the skills and knowledge to manage anxiety and move forward with courage and resilience. \nThis dynamic workshop will help participants to recognise anxiety disorders in children and adolescents (5 – 18yr olds). It will delve into the obvious and not so obvious signs of anxiety\, discuss where they come from and why they exist\, and offer a range of practical\, powerful interventions to assist participants to respond effectively within their own professional context. \nKey content areas Karen will discuss include: \n\nAn overview of the most common anxiety disorders in childhood and adolescence.\nRecognising symptoms which suggest anxiety\, and differentiating anxiety from other problems with similar symptoms.\nUnderstanding the impact of anxiety on:\n\nPeer and family relationships.\nSchool performance\, functioning and attendance.\nThe potency of co-existing concerns such as depression and self-harm.\n\n\nWorking with anxiety in a therapeutic setting including:\n\nBuilding a therapeutic rapport with children and teens with anxiety.\nWhat all children and teens need to know about anxiety\, and how to support them in using this information to manage anxiety and build strength\, courage and resilience.\nWhy anxiety can happen without an identifiable trigger.\nTherapeutic interventions to help young people manage intrusive symptoms and difficult behaviours when anxiety is the fuel.\nPractical\, proven strategies to strengthen children and teens against anxiety in the short and long term.\nPushing back against the negative- building self-confidence\, resilience and self-concept  with young people with anxiety.\n\n\nUnderstanding the ways loving parents might inadvertently feed anxiety and undermine resilience\, and how to work with this in a therapeutic setting.\n\nKaren Young founded the popular website\, Hey Sigmund\, attracting millions of readers each year worldwide and is author of the best selling Hey Warrior book for young people with anxiety. She is a regular contributor to Parenting Magazine in New Zealand\, and can often be heard on Australian radio and TV programs such as The Project and the ABC. Her articles have been translated into a numerous languages and her work has been published internationally on The Huffington Post\, The Good Men Project\, The Mighty\, and Yahoo Health. She is a sought-after international speaker to sold out events from New York to Newcastle. She has authored three books for kids and parents to help them understand anxiety and find their ‘brave’. Experience has taught her that people can do amazing things with the right information\, psychology has something for everyone\, jargon doesn’t\, everyone has a story to tell\, short bios are the longest to write\, nobody has it all figured out and the best people to be around are the ones who already know this. Karen translates the neuroscience of anxiety and every day life into meaningful advice for all ages. \n
