Identifying and working through problematic parenting patterns in child and adolescent treatment

Presented by SickKids CCMH Learning Institute

Date: September 27, 2023
Time: 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. ET
Facilitator: Adele Lafrance, PhD, C.Psych.

Description:
This training is intended for clinicians and therapists working with parents of children and adolescents. In addition to an emotion-focused conceptualization of problematic parenting patterns, Dr. Lafrance will present tools and techniques to promote attitudinal and behavioral change in caregivers in a way that is supportive and productive. This training also includes a module with practical strategies to manage challenging or conflictual co-parenting dynamics that impact on child/adolescent development and mental health.

Learning objectives:

  • Identify markers of emotional processes underlying problematic patterns of caregiving / therapy-interfering behaviours in caregivers
  • Apply tools and techniques to transform problematic emotional processes fueling problematic patterns of behavior in caregivers
  • Apply tools and techniques to increase cooperation and collaboration between co-parents in serious conflict
  • Discuss ethico-legal considerations related to increased caregiver involvement, including when caregivers are severely under-resourced


The International Institute for EFFT recognizes this training as a full-day of in-person training.

Additionally, participants of this training will have the option to purchase Dr. Adele Lafrance’s book Emotion-Focused Family Therapy: A Transdiagnostic Model for Caregiver-Focused Interventions (2019) for a discounted price and delivered to their work/home!
