Formulation: Understanding the child and family in focused psychological strategies for children (5-12 years)

Join us for the third webinar in the RACGP Specific Interests and Emerging Minds series, which will focus on approaches to formulation that enable children’s participation and consider the child’s perspective on the presenting concerns. Rather than focusing on casual explanations, these formulation approaches help children to think about what gets in the way of them living their ‘best life’. It covers ways of engaging children in conversations about the strengths, skills and values that have helped them to respond to the presenting problem so far. The webinar will also include discussion on how case formulations can be written in collaboration with children to ensure their experiences are respectfully and accurately represented.
