This four hour parent/caregiver/educator training in the basics of selective mutism (SM) is an interactive didactic training to help adults better understand SM and how to interact with children who have SM. Background in anxiety from a brain based and behavioral perspective is given as well as fundamental interaction techniques which have been proven to be successful with children who have SM. There is ample opportunity to practice these skills and receive feedback within this training session.

This online 8 week parent workshop is one of the best ways parents can actively help their anxious child. The best part? This focuses on the only thing parents can control- their own responses to their child’s behaviors. Join the many other parents who have taken this step to help their children. Groups are limited in size to allow for the best experience. Contact us to get in on the next workshop!
