Single Session Thinking: Families with Children and Youth In Practice

Description

Single Session Thinking: Families with Children and Youth In Practice

This half-day practical workshop builds on the online self-paced module and is aimed to bring together concepts from working with the whole family with children and young people within a Single Session framework.

Applicable for practitioners in the child and adolescent field, it has a focus on how to include parents and carers to adopt a whole of family approach for better outcomes. This in practice component incorporates practicing single session principles and techniques for meaningful engagement of children and adolescents and how to make the space safe for all involved.

Relevant Audience:
SST FCY in Practice is relevant for practitioners working with families with children and young people aged 5–17 years, who would like further opportunities for skills practice and the exploration of ideas for embedding SST into their work. Participants must have previously completed the pre-requisite SST FCY online modules.

Workshop Style:
This is a practice-focused workshop. Emphasising the direct ‘clinician–client’ relationship, it will recap key points from the self-paced course and guide you through experiential activities to embed SST into your own practice with children aged 5–17 years and their families. There will be small group practice activities using a range of reflective processes and case discussions.
