Engagement and assessment: Laying the foundation for focused psychological strategies for children (5-12 years)

Presented by RACGP Specific Interests and Emerging Minds, this webinar will support participants to consider several skills in engagement and assessment with children and their families. It focuses on engaging with parents to explore their values and contextualise the concerns they have about their children’s wellbeing. Exploring why these skills with parents are vital in working with children.

In addition, the webinar will cover initial engagement skills for working directly with children including exploring children’s own values and how a whole child approach can be applied to existing assessment processes to gain the most holistic picture of the child’s presenting concerns.
