Supporting Children Through Family Change

2 September 2024, 10:00am - 1:00pm AEST

Family separation, divorce and remarriage can be a very difficult time for children. During or even a long time after, children can shut down through grief, have difficulty managing all the changes and even have their development and growth impacted.

Children experiencing family change can benefit from supportive professionals. Learn creative ways to help children and young people through the changes in their families using art and play therapy methods for assessment and intervention.
