This workshop will give participants an understanding of anxiety and techniques and tools that help students achieve calm and self-regulation during these unprecedented times.
The Thrive Method takes a multi-faceted approach towards working with individuals who have difficulty regulating their emotional state.
This short course offers proven strategies and tools that can be implemented immediately over a Telehealth platform (and strategies for 1:1 sessions) to coach parents as well as build an individualized treatment program for clients with anxiety.
Miriam (Manela) Frankel, OTR/L, is the founder of https://www.otinyourpocket.com/ provides toolkits for parents and educators to deal with struggling children.
It is unique in its combination of both hands-on techniques and demonstrations of physical exercises, to be used at home as remediation, alongside guidance and emotional support for parents so that they have tools, along with their own intuition, to deal with different behaviors and challenges.
