    Webinar: W.A.I.T What Am I Thinking? Getting to the “Root” of the Problem!
    Date: Thursday June 8th, 2023
    Webinar Time: 12:00pm-1:30pm EST
    Presenter Name: Rick Hollering, Youth Services Alliance

    Our perceptions determine our reality! Have you ever wondered why people do the things they do? Do you ever ask, “Why can’t they just be normal … like me?” We see everything through a lens of both personality perspectives and environmental perspectives. We will discuss how to be aware of our own blind spots that might keep us from connecting with others. We will break down barriers to trust and how our own perceptions play a significant role in how we interact with others, including youth and families in education settings. When we realize that people don’t do things to you, they do things for themselves, we reduce anxiety and stress in our own life. By strengthening metacognition skills, you can also increase a person’s self-awareness, self-reliance, flexibility, and productivity, as well as reduce their anxiety and enhance their focus. Join us for this fun, interactive experience!

    Objectives:
    1. Learn approaches to consider the “root of the problem” rather than evaluating the situation by the visible behavior.
    2. Explore metacognition tools for self-regulation, problem solving, and expressing feelings.
    3. Assist youth and families in identifying and connecting the major pieces of life’s puzzle to improve relationships and strengthen families.
    4. Understand how different personalities process trauma and the various ways trauma can present in youth.
