One of the greatest challenges is teaching adults and children the skills to understand and manage their own emotions and mental health, to enable them to become resilient, robust, reflective, resourceful and responsible.
With this in mind, the next in the series of events presented by The HUB, supported by PwC , will focus on Decider Skills - 12 easy to digest life skills that are for everyone – and will be invaluable to anyone who is responsible for a child or teenager in Guernsey. Based on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and used in both primary and secondary care in Guernsey Mental Health Services, these Decider Skills are evidence-based, highly effective, memorable and fun. The brilliant thing is that you can teach any child the skills and be proactive about their mental health. By adopting the skills as a household you'll create a common language to help prevent, defuse and discuss emotions escalating.
This is the fourth in a series of important talks which PwC, recently awarded the Corporate Social Responsibility award at the Guernsey Community Foundation awards, is sponsoring on the Island, in collaboration with The HUB.
The advice session will take place next Monday 13 March 2017 at the Princess Royal Centre for Performing Arts, starting at 7.00pm with a talk by subject matter experts Michelle Ayres and Carol Vivyan, Guernsey-based Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapists who in 2010 developed The Decider out of their own clinical practice. Their talk will be followed by drinks and snacks and a great opportunity to chat directly with the panellists on a one-to-one basis.
