TBRI® In Depth: Back to School Transitions Coaching

Transitions can be hard for any child, and the result can often be behaviors which are challenging to parents and caregivers. As the back-to-school season approaches, we would like to create a space for parents and caregivers to consider strategies to navigate these potentially tricky times. In this webinar, we will consider daily and life transitions, and factors which can make children and teens especially vulnerable to these experiences. We will discuss how we might effectively scaffold transitions to make them more manageable, such as adjusting the bar of expectation, proactively addressing physiological needs, and adding connecting rituals. We will also remind caregivers of the importance of meeting their own needs during a season of transitions and consider their opportunities for proactive and responsive self-care. We will troubleshoot perceived barriers to effectively scaffolding transitions. Finally, we will provide individualized feedback as needed to participants to support ongoing skills acquisition and practice.
