Engaging children in counseling can be a challenge, even for experienced mental health professionals, particularly when children are hesitant to apply the skills they’ve learned. By using techniques that capture their interest, children become more motivated to practice and develop essential skills. This training introduces practical, engaging strategies to help children build key abilities in emotional regulation and social development.

Led by best-selling author and international speaker Liana Lowenstein, this webinar introduces innovative interventions to teach emotional regulation, problem-solving, pro-social behavior, and flexible thinking. Learn strategies to inspire children to practice these skills and create lasting positive behavior change.

Learning objectives:

  • Master seven interventions for feelings expression, emotional regulation, social skills, and flexible thinking.
  • Explore creative strategies to encourage children to implement skills learned in sessions.
  • Identify three key processing skills to enhance therapeutic effectiveness.

Don’t miss this opportunity to expand your therapeutic toolkit with actionable and creative techniques for fostering meaningful growth in children and youth.
