Emotion Coaching is based on the principle that nurturing and emotionally supportive relationships provide optimal contexts for the promotion of children’s outcomes and resilience.

Emotion Coaching uses moments of heightened emotion and resulting behaviour to guide and teach children and young people about more effective responses.

 

The aims of this training are to:

•       Raise awareness of the physiological basis of EC

•       Raise awareness of the theoretical basis for EC

•       Develop understanding of different emotional styles relevant to EC

•       Understand and have experience of the techniques involved in EC

•       Reflect on own practice with respect to EC

 

Within the 3 hour training session we aim to explore the principles of Emotion Coaching; develop practical skills and knowledge; and consider how this can be applied in relation to supporting the social /emotional learning needs of vulnerable children and young people.

 

The training is being presented by Dr Elisabeth Sheppard

Educational Psychologist
