Meeting Children’s Emotional Needs after Trauma

This is a 1  1/2 Hour Seminar

Meeting Children’s Emotional Needs after Trauma
The Calm after the Storm

This workshop will explore potential physical and behavioral reactions children may exhibit after a traumatic event (i.e., death of loved one, separation of parents, severe illness, natural disaster, etc.) and give ways that pastors, church youth leaders and parents can help to restore security in a child’s life.  Guidelines will be given to help you talk to children about trauma and disasters.  We will also discuss how far to go in protecting your child from news stories and other means of displayed violence.  Lastly, you will learn how to tell when your child may need a professional therapist.  This will be an interactive workshop with ample time for questions and discussions.
