Collaborative Problem Solving: Think Differently About Challenging Kids
This Full-Day Comprehensive Overview of Collaborative Problem Solving includes lunch.
Located at the Roseburg YMCA.
Presented by Think:Kids certified practitioner, Rick Bowman, M.S.Ed, this full-day intensive training is intended for mental health clinicians, educators, parents, and community partners who serve or work with children. It is meant to give comprehensive exposure to the model. Relationally based, CPS views challenging behavior as a learning disability of some very crucial cognitive(thinking) skills necessary to handle the demands of everyday life. Through a more empathetic and accurate understanding of what is getting in a child's way, we (parents, educators, clinicians) are better able to intervene to support children through a collaborative process of teaching skills and solving problems. For more information about the CPS model visit: www.thinkkids.org.
Learning Targets:
Provide an introduction to the philosophy of Collaborative Problem Solving.
Provide exposure to the assessment, planning and intervention components of the
Collaborative Problem Solving model.
Provide strategies for when a child refuses or has difficulty with skills such as
cognitive flexibility, emotion- or self-regulation, or expressing his/ her concerns,
among others.
Provide strategies for proactively working with children to build skills for areas that
cause chronic challenges.
