SUMMARY:Anxiety – Helping Children to Cope
DESCRIPTION:‘Anxiety is a thin stream of fears trickling through the mind. If encouraged\, it cuts a channel into which all other thoughts are drained.’ \nArthur Somers Roche \nThe daily pressures on our children are increasing from targets and testing in the classroom to the rise of pressure advertising and social media. For many of our children the world\, or certain aspects of it\, is overwhelming\, complex and scary. From separation and social anxiety to performance and health anxiety\, an increasing number of children now benefit from direct support to manage their worries. \nThis workshop will introduce you to the current thinking around children’s anxiety and move onto exploring ways to support young people to manage their anxiety more effectively. We will introduce you to visual resources and a toolbox of practical strategies that can be used within home and school. \n  \nTickets £25 per person. Refreshments included. \nFEEDBACK \n‘Fantastic course – can definitely recommend and I will certainly attend more workshops on offer. Thank you for delivering a well rounded session and thank you to everyone else present. I came away feeling more informed\, confident and reassured. This is probably the first time that I felt that others ‘got it’\, that I wasn’t alone and it has reassured me that I am heading in the right direction with the various strategies etc. Once again\, thank you for the professional delivery of the course and opportunity’ \n

SUMMARY:Autism and Girls - The Hidden Gender
DESCRIPTION:‘Are parents and professionals missing the signs of autism in girls?’ (Kate Reynolds) \nAutism is often described as the ‘exaggerated male brain’ and certainly there is prevalence in diagnosis with current National Autistic Society figures showing that only 1 in 4 diagnoses are female. Is this really an accurate picture though? Are boys really more susceptible to this condition? \nIn this course\, we explore why autism is different for girls\, the gender issues within diagnostic methods and the issues with gender bias even post diagnosis. We will look at the particular characteristics presenting within girls as well as female friendly strategies for dealing with big issues such as puberty.

SUMMARY:Emotional Regulation (including anger/anxiety)
DESCRIPTION:EMOTIONAL REGULATION – For parents and professionals to provide support at home and in the school environment \nFor many children to thrive and succeed within the home and school setting\, they need to have developed an ability to manage/regulate their emotions so that they are able to learn and achieve. \nAn original version of the intervention written by Niki Green has been successfully implemented in many local schools and Niki is now running a new enhanced version of the original program in several other Shepway schools as well as privately through The Contented Child with measured impact. The original version is being successfully run across Shepway and other districts. Delegates will have the opportunity to gain a theoretical overview of the rage/anxiety cycle and to consider the underlying reasons for a pupil’s behaviour. Delegates will be supported to identify strategies to support pupils at each of the stages of the rage/anxiety cycle and to explore the reasons for heightened anxieties/emotions.\nDelegates will be provided with a resource pack to run the new enhanced 6/12 week structured intervention programme through sharing examples of effective practice.The programmes are structured to enable the pupils to develop their skills in managing their own crisis situations and to be able to reflect. Children will create a workbook and be introduced to a variety of visual supports which can be used as a management tool by parents/setting staff and enable consistency in approach. This programme can also be adapted for small group work. \nRefreshments will be provided.

SUMMARY:Autism and Girls - The Hidden Gender
DESCRIPTION:‘Are parents and professionals missing the signs of autism in girls?’ (Kate Reynolds) \nAutism is often described as the ‘exaggerated male brain’ and certainly there is prevalence in diagnosis with current National Autistic Society figures showing that only 1 in 4 diagnoses are female. Is this really an accurate picture though? Are boys really more susceptible to this condition? \nIn this course\, we explore why autism is different for girls\, the gender issues within diagnostic methods and the issues with gender bias even post diagnosis. We will look at the particular characteristics presenting within girls as well as female friendly strategies for dealing with big issues such as puberty.

SUMMARY:Teenage Anxiety - Understanding the Impact and Building Strategies to Thrive
DESCRIPTION:Up to 1 in 3 teenagers struggle with chronic anxiety – overwhelming feelings of worry\, fear and panic that can make daily life immensely difficult to navigate. \nWithout support\, living with persistent anxiety can result in complex and unhelpful patterns of behaviour developing and often results in a negative cycle of isolation feeding the anxiety. Positively\, there are lots of effective techniques that can help teenagers reduce feelings of anxiety and learn how to keep them from taking over. \nThis workshop explores the wide ranging factors that can impact on anxiety levels and helps participants to develop understanding of the impact this can have on teenagers. \nParticipants will leave with a ‘toolbox’ of resources that teenagers can use on their own or with a support person to help them deal with the day to day challenges of anxiety and break free of negative cycles. \nParking is free at this venue with a parking permit. This will be forward to you prior to the event or alternatively available on the day. \nTickets are £25 per person.

For many of our children the world\, or certain aspects of it\, is overwhelming\, complex and scary. From separation and social anxiety to performance and health anxiety\, an increasing number of children now benefit from direct support to manage their worries. \nThis workshop will introduce you to the current thinking around children’s anxiety and move onto exploring ways to support young people to manage their anxiety more effectively. We will introduce you to visual resources and a toolbox of practical strategies that can be used within home and school. \n  \nTickets £25 per person.

Thank you for delivering a well rounded session and thank you to everyone else present. I came away feeling more informed\, confident and reassured. This is probably the first time that I felt that others ‘got it’\, that I wasn’t alone and it has reassured me that I am heading in the right direction with the various strategies etc. Once again\, thank you for the professional delivery of the course and opportunity’ \n
