MEETING WITH CHILDREN Course
with
Lorri Yasenik and Jon Graham
Child Consultants, Mediators, Counsellors, Family Lawyers
Meeting with Children places the meeting with a child as a central element in family mediation processes.
How do we create opportunities for children to describe their experience of their family life in the post separation world. How do children and young people want to speak with us? How do we get out of the way and just listen to what children have to say?
This course teaches play based and expressive techniques to create a safe space for sharing through metaphor. The course also teaches pathways for giving information back to parents in ways that honors the child's right to privacy.
Meeting with Children is a four day program.
We cover
- Authentic listenting and the child voice
- Child development and attachment theory
- Models for play based meetings with children
- Five strategies for a child meeting
- Meeting with parents and how to give feedback
