About the event
NOTICE: Early registration extended until 10 February (inclusive)
Together with our guests, we will explore what happens when we view children’s disruptive and challenging behaviours through the lens of a relational, developmentally oriented approach. In his original approach, Dr. Neufeld offers a new map for understanding emotional, learning, and behavioural difficulties, along with guidance for addressing them. This full-day seminar is intended for professionals, therapists, counsellors, pedagogues, teachers, early childhood educators, social workers, researchers, and all those who encounter children, adolescents, and their families in their work.
The programme includes lectures, a workshop, time for questions and answers, and a concluding panel discussion with the speakers.
Gordon Neufeld ‘Emotional roots of troubling behaviour and mapping our ways through’
Tamara Strijack ‘Preserving emotional health in a screenfilled world’
Eva de Gosztonyi ‘Understanding and coming alongside anxiety’
