As part of our free webinar series, the Family Law Pathways Networks across Australia invite you to join a free webinar by leading expert Trent Savill

 

This workshop supports professionals to better understand and respond to children and young people who engage in aggressive and controlling behaviours. The workshop will explore how developmental attachment impacts on our capacity to trust and hand over control to others, and also looks at the important cognitive skills required to be able to comply with the expectations of others. Participants will then be provided with a range of strategies that support children to – trust and feel safe with others, integrate the needs of others with their own, and to seek the attention of adults in a more adaptive fashion.

Overview of Training:

  • The Triune Brain
  • Trust vs Control
  • Cognitive Skills
  • Distorted templates for others
  • Reading and responding to miscues
  • Reducing power struggles
  • Integrating Needs
