Supporting Highly Sensitive, Strong-Willed Children

Kristin Mariella

Description

In this insightful workshop, Kristin will explore the unique emotional and sensory profiles of highly sensitive, strong willed children. Many adults unknowingly use traditional behaviour management techniques that can inadvertently escalate the very behaviour they aim to correct.

You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of these children’s needs and together, we’ll consider connection-based strategies for co-regulation, setting respectful boundaries, and creating emotionally safe spaces that help these children thrive.

As a respectful parenting educator and Montessori-trained teacher, Kristin will share insights from working closely with families of highly sensitive children. This session will leave you feeling seen, supported and equipped to make a meaningful difference in the lives of these often misunderstood children.  Whether you’re a parent, educator or administrator, this workshop will enhance your approach and strengthen your relationship with sensitive, strong-willed children.
