This CPD will equip you with the knowledge and research necessary to feel confident working with young people.
The 10-25-year age group are probably the most at risk of severe anxiety, depression, self-harming, suicide, cyber-bullying and feeling overwhelmed.
We will explore and learn about this area in mental health that is in need of more trained professionals.
​
WE WILL LOOK AT
​
*Mental Illness in Young People

​
*Hormones and Neurotransmitters – which ones are helpful and how young people can better access and use them
​
*The Therapeutic Alliance when working with teenagers and adolescents
​
*The Parents – how and when to involve them. What is their role?
​
*Is it business as usual? We look at where and how things differ
