HOW TO SUPPORT YOUR LOVED ONE’S MENTAL HEALTH – REGARDLESS OF AGE: A SKILLS-BASED APPROACH USING EFFT
FACILITATORS; DR. KATHERINE HENDERSON, C. PSYCH & DR. SHARI MAYMAN, C. PSYCH
This two-day intensive Emotion-Focused Family Therapy virtual workshop is an incredible opportunity for parents and caregivers of individuals struggling with mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, substance use, and eating disorders, regardless of their age.
Through education, video demonstration and skills practice, parents and caregivers will become equipped with practical strategies with respect to 1) managing symptoms, 2) emotional coaching and 3) relationship repair. Parents and caregivers will also be supported to identify, work through and overcome many obstacles that surface in this challenging journey. The specific skills taught over the course of the 2 days are meant to be effective regardless of the affected individual’s age or motivation for change.
This virtual workshop is open to parents, step-parents, grand-parents, aunts, uncles, spouses, partners and any other adult caregiver – whether or not they are involved in active treatment with their loved one.
Drs. Katherine Henderson and Shari Mayman are co-directors of Anchor Psychological Services. With a combined 25 years of experience they bring a wealth of knowledge about mental health. They are involved in research, training, and clinical work. They are certified EFFT trainers and supervisors and use Emotion Focused Family Therapy in their practices for a variety of mental health issues.
