Conflict Resolution Skills

Amidst the current mental health crisis, teaching children and teens crucial social skills🗣️ is more vital than ever. With the rise of technology👩🏼‍💻📱 and online communication, many are facing challenges, emphasizing the urgency to foster face-to-face interactions. Building these skills is not just about social grace; it’s an essential investment in their ability to connect, empathize, and thrive in a rapidly changing world🌎

As child/adolescent therapists working in multiple levels of mental health treatment care, we’ve witnessed an increasing number of challenges kids face with conflict resolution. Recognizing this need, I’ve developed ‘The Peace Process’—a step-by-step guide on the next slide aimed at empowering children and adolescents with the essential skills to navigate and resolve conflicts independently. As adults, we should ensure we are utilizing this language as well when conflicts arise.
P.S. School counselors🏫📚-if you’d like a copy of just ‘The Peace Process’ for your office as a resource for mediations, send me a dm and I will share the PDF with you😊
