Understanding and Managing Behaviour that Challenges
28/02/2023, 9:30 am - 12:30 pm
Challenging behaviour can be symptomatic of other feelings and emotions including anxiety, fear and frustration. This introductory workshop aims to develop an understanding of how anger and aggression is triggered and experienced by children and young people and practical ways to work in a trauma informed way to help them express their feelings, so they don’t overwhelm and lead to conflict. We will also consider personal triggers and ways that our own expectations and behaviours can impact on a challenging situation, along with practical tips for diffusing difficulties and keeping safe.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
• The basic principles of anger management theory and how this works in practice
• The potential impact of trauma and Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE’s) on emotions and behaviour
• Anger ‘triggers’ that impact on how we cope with feelings of anger and frustration
• Ways to identify early warning signs and simple techniques to diffuse challenging situations
• Ideas for building emotional literacy
