Virtual Event | Supporting Your Adolescent in Times of Stress

Please join us for our upcoming virtual workshop, Supporting Your Adolescent in Times of Stress: Staying Connected, Maintaining Structure with Dr. Michael Davidovits. The workshop is part of SLA Parenting Series and will take place on Thursday, April 30, 2020 at 7:00 p.m.

EVENT DESCRIPTION

Many of us are being called to take care of our adolescent children in new ways during this time of crisis. Like all of us, they are facing challenges they are not used to facing, and also deprived of many of the outlets that help them feel good about themselves and their place in the world.

In this talk Michael Davidovits will address the following questions:

• How do we help our kids structure their time (including screen time) and do so in a way that does not generate conflict?
• How do we help our kids with their fears and anxieties about the current situation? How do we manage increased levels of conflict in the home?
• How do we stay connected to our kids, even as they pull away?

Michael's talk will introduce some general concepts about adolescent development, with practical suggestions for managing day-to-day issues.

Michael Davidovits, PhD, LCSW, is a teaching faculty member and Assistant Director of the Project for Adolescents and their Families at the Ackerman Institute. He is also a lecturer in the Narrative Medicine Program at Columbia University, and a clinical supervisor in the Family Medicine Residency Program at the Columbia University School of Medicine. Dr. Davidovits offers frequent trainings throughout the metropolitan area on conducting family therapy with adolescents, and maintains a private practice in Manhattan.
