In this session we will focus on self-awareness and self management skills for youth. You will learn developmentally appropriate ways to talk to your children about emotions, help them recognize the physical symptoms associated with challenging emotions and strategies to help regulate hard to feel emotions. You will walk away from this session with practical ideas and solutions for helping to find the 'calm within the chaos' in life!
