STOP the CHAOS

Hello, My name is Tania Perrier and I am working with Elaine Horlings, a local psychotherapist who has created a workshop for parents/teachers struggling with children who have mental health issues. Below is the workshop proposal. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you would like to book a workshop or have any questions. Workshop proposal Dealing with the challenges of today's mental health crisis requires problem-solvers who bring different perspectives and are willi...ng to take risks. STOP THE CHAOS emerged out of a pursuit to inspire and support the community, and a desire for actions to speak louder than words. Established in 2018, we’re an organization driven by progressive ideas, bold actions, and a strong foundation of support. We are very passionate about the purpose of this workshop and in helping parents/teachers who are parenting/teaching children with mental illness. The workshop is created and facilitated by Elaine Horlings, M.Div., R.P. Elaine has a private psychotherapy practise in Barrie ON. Elaine strongly believes those caring for loved ones with mental illness need as much support as those dealing with the mental illness. The truth is, everyone is affected by the mental illness, it is not only contained to one individual. The Following is an outline of the purpose, format and topics covered in our workshop. PURPOSE: At STOP THE CHAOS we are passionate about helping parents/teachers who are struggling with children that are experiencing mental illness and other mental stressors. We recognize the child’s difficulties affect the entire family/classroom and therefore we desire to equip parents/teachers with resources and strategies to bring calm back into their lives and homes/classrooms. TOPICS: Topics covered include: 1. Self-care: parents/teachers are encouraged to care for themselves, revisited every week 2. Social media: engaging with the child and social media 3. Communication: how to talk with the child, 4. Discipline versus punishment 5. Guest community speaker (OPP officer, CMHA worker, shelter worker etc.) and community crisis resources. FORMAT: The format is flexible. The workshop can be offered as 1 three-hour session or 2 one and a half hour sessions. Thank you for your time. If you would like to book a workshop, have any questions or would like more information please contact us. www.stopthechaos.ca [email protected] www.gofundme.com campaign #: gf.me/u/n73sfv
