Erupting Angst: Understanding the collision between anger & aggression in the world of anxiety
This workshop will seek to provide an understanding of the reasons why anger and aggression often become the challenging mask behind which anxiety hides. The experience of anxiety in the growing child is one that constantly moves and shifts in how it presents. Often, rather than showing its colors through sadness and tears, anxiety presents with anger and aggression. In fact, it is typically the symptoms of “irritability,” “defiance,” and outwardly or inwardly directed “aggression” that results in parents’ pursuit of supports for themselves and/or their child. In this workshop we will explore exactly why anxiety is often expressed through the explosive and/or simmering symptoms of anger and aggression. In knowing these connections, we will position ourselves to better understand the response our children need from us in the face of their erupting angst.
Dr. Vanessa Lapointe Rpsych, registered psychologist, speaker, and mother, works with communities, parents, and children to cultivate a sense of hope in the face of mental health and related challenges

Supporting Children Who Have Experienced Trauma
Unfortunately, traumatic experiences are far more prevalent than we’d like to think. We have come to understand that many common experiences are potentially traumatizing including medical procedures, accidents, and high impact falls as well as the whole spectrum of challenging human relationships. Recent advances in research expands our understanding of trauma and its impact on a child's functioning in almost every aspect of their lives. We also know that traumatized children who get the support they need are more likely to recover from these painful experiences. This webinar provides an opportunity to understand more about trauma and its impacts as well as identifying ways to provide support to children who have experienced trauma
