Personality and Temperament: Connecting with Young Clients
| Overview / Abstract: |
Personality and Temperament: Connecting with Young Clients is a 3-hour online continuing education (CE) course that demonstrates how differences in personality and temperament impact children's behavior, and how adults communicate and connect with them. Understanding differences in temperament and personality among adults and children will ultimately assist us in developing better relationships with our clients and enhance therapy interventions, plans, and goals. Within the context of each type, this course will describe motivators that are type-specific, discuss behavioral "triggers," and identify strategies and techniques for engaging children's cooperation, while freeing them from negative roles. We will also discuss ways clinicians can help parents to recognize their own traits and tendencies, identify their children's personality and temperament, and learn to become more effective behavior managers. Many of the same observations and interventions can be applied to children who are experiencing learning differences or developmental challenges.
