Description
Talking to a child about his or her learning differences is tricky. A practitioner may spend hours trying to optimize and personalize the feedback experience and yet, the child will leave the session feeling overwhelmed and focused on the negative.
Finding the right language is not an option, it is critical.
For this course, Dr. Sharp sits down with Dr. Liz Angoff to talk through the evolution of her method of delivering feedback to children. Over the past several years, she has taken her own experiences and knowledge and turned them into a bona fide manual (masquerading as a children’s book) for delivering feedback to kids. Here are just a few things covered in their conversation:
- Why the language used during feedback with kids is SO important
- How to enroll kids in the assessment process from the beginning
- Metaphors that resonate with kids
Target audience: Psychologists, mental health counselors, marriage and family therapists, social workers, addiction counselors, nurses
