DESCRIPTION

Melinda Eitzen JD, Jennifer Leister LPCS, and Charissa Fry LPC, will be discussing how to identify when our clients are dysregulated and have gone into fight or flight mode or shutdown mode and how to help them regulate back into a state where they can make good logical decisions.

The presentation will include specific practical application that the listener can immediately put into practice.

The training will also provide critical insight into how the MHP or Child Specialist can conceptualize interviewing children and facilitating meetings.
