SUMMARY:Helping Young People Deal With Emotional Overwhelm eWorkshop 2 -Sep -2025
DESCRIPTION:When puberty kicks in\, so do the hormones. Bodies change at a rate of knots\, unfamiliar  feelings pop up\, new and interesting ideas develop. Young people literally become strangers to themselves; and they want to find out who they are now. It’s a new\, exciting and sometimes overwhelming time. \nThis eWorkshop looks at ways people who work with young people can help them navigate these times. This involves\, how we can help them identify their ‘go-to’ people\, places and processes in times of uncertainty or turmoil and we’ll go through simple\, quickly accessed strategies to help them in uncertain\, confusing and/or ‘overwhelming’ moments. \nIn this interactive workshop participants will gain knowledge\, insight and ideas about: \n·         Just exactly what Puberty and Adolescence are and what each of these ‘look like’ in Australia 2023. \n·         The grounding basics of wellbeing which can be strengthened to help young people manage their ‘growing up’ years. \n·         The impact of trauma and/or hardship and their impact on emotional \nregulation. \nIncrease their professional practice through: \n·         Experiencing simple and brief ‘settling’ strategies that you can pass on to young people to help them manage emotional overload. \n·         Identifying what we can also respectfully offer (and not offer) the families/carers of young people to help them better support their young ones. \n·         Exploring three overlapping Frameworks for understanding and responding to ‘Emotional Overwhelm’ in young people \n·         The Circle of Tolerance. \n·         The Circle of Courage. \n·         Three pillars of Three Pillars of Trauma-Informed Care. \nWhen: Tuesday 2nd September 2025 from 9.30am- 12.30pm (AEST) \nWhere: Online eWorkshop via Zoom.

The fee for registrations after the 19th Aug is $250.00 (GST included). \nTo register: Register and complete payment. A Tax Invoice will be emailed to you. The payment needs to be completed before the workshop occurs\, for the registration to be fully confirmed \nFacilitator: Peter Slattery \nMany years ago\, Peter did a B.A. in Social Science and an M.A. in Psychology. He says he thoroughly enjoyed his time at university and freely admits to having learned something. He also says that the past 30 plus years of working with young people\, especially with those having a hard time of life\, have taught him a lot more\, and given him some ideas about how to make use of what he learned at university. Today\, Peter works freelance across Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand\, with occasional jaunts into Asia\, North America\, the U.K. and Europe. He continues working with young people in all the places you expect to find them; within all the school systems\, as well as within refuges\, rehab centres\, the many forms that youth programs take and in juvenile justice settings. Having done this work for a long time now\, Peter finds himself in demand as a trainer of workers\, as a supervisor and mentor\, and seems to be constantly invited to speak at conferences both within Australia and overseas. He has published extensively in both the E and the hard-copy worlds. He says he considers himself extremely lucky\, and thinks of his work as an uplifting challenge\, a privilege\, a joy and often\, just a lot of fun. \nFeedback from previous workshops \n\n“Pete is great – engaging – informative.” \n“All of the content was important and relevant. I really enjoyed building confidence with group-based stuff.” \n“There are activities that I can use straight away and I am looking forward to positively adapting the way I engage groups.” \n“Excellent mix of hands on activities and learning backed up by theories about why it works.” \n“I loved all of it – such a privilege to spend this time with you and learn from your knowledge and stories Pete.” \n\n
