Description

Do you know therapists who seem to have “the magic touch” when it comes to getting children to trust and connect with them?

What if there are actual behaviors that you can learn and incorporate into your way of being with children that can solicit openness, relaxation and trust?

Watch Dafna Lender, LCSW, for this compelling 3-hour workshop, as she walks you through the complexities of using polyvagal theory with your young clients. Using your own social engagement system and tuning into the child’s physiological state you’ll learn:

Regulating and calming techniques for more curiosity, openness & connection
How sending safety messages to brains of mistrusting kids will make them more open to new relational experiences
To use voice, rhythm, facial expressions and touch to elicit trust

Dafna has successfully treated children with a variety of backgrounds, including children raised in orphanages, with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder, exposed to domestic violence and community violence and children of parents with chronic mental illness.
