As we continue to exist in a “socially distanced” world, we are eager to provide your child with an opportunity for safe socialization and support around navigating friendships and emotions. This year we are planning to offer groups for children over telehealth (video). Our plan this year is for our groups to start in late October and run through the 2020-2021 school year with breaks over holidays.

This program will provide an educational forum and a venue for exchange of ideas and concerns, assisting providers and volunteers in providing this essential service.

Other topics that will be addressed include:

This seminar will provide participants with a basic, yet practical understanding of cognitive and behavioral principles and models that inform CBT treatment. CBT case conceptualizations will be highlighted, along with CBT key features including session structure and agenda setting, guided discovery, cognitive restructuring, behavioral experiments, and exposure treatment. Work with clients who have anxiety and depressive disorders will used to promote integration of CBT treatment tools and strategies.
