The Basics of Therapeutic Conversations with Children

How to Work with Children When You’re Not a Child Therapist

I’d like to invite you to my upcoming one-day interactive workshop. We’ll discuss how to navigate therapeutic conversations and interactions with children, even if you do not specialize in child therapy If you’ve ever wondered what was age-appropriate for a child’s understanding or how to get them to engage during a session, you’re not alone. Many therapists have struggled to engage their younger clients in a conversation. In this online, interactive workshop you’ll have hands-on training in conversational and play strategies to use with children. You will leave with a clear understanding of how to co-create effective goals with children and strategies to help them move toward their goals.

By the end of the event, you’ll have:

• Solution-focused basics for working with childrenCommunication skills that work with children
• Key childhood development factors to understand your clients
• Simple, therapeutic play activities to use during sessions
• Strategies to engage parents
