Do you ever feel out of your depth or overwhelmed with trying to manage students who come to you emotionally distressed? Does this affect your own stress levels?

Whether you are a teacher or support staff, it is essential for your own health and well-being and the well-being of your students that you feel resourced with strategies to manage these situations effectively.

In this introductory webinar, Jane Daisley-Snow will help you recognize the signs of mental health issues; respond appropriately with ‘mental health first aid’; and refer students on to receive the professional support they need.

This webinar is inspired by ACAP’s ‘Accidental Counsellor’ training. Learn more about the ‘Accidental Counsellor’ training via Navitas Insights.
