This one-day workshop explores self-harm and is suitable for workers whose clients may be exhibiting self-harming behaviours. Participants will explore this complex subject that is often mistakenly seen as attempted suicide.
This workshop starts from the basic principles of understanding the issues leading to and surrounding destructive and harmful behaviours, the function of the behaviour(s) and appropriate responses. Self-harm is a relevant issue for all of those working with children and young people and is of grave concern.
The aims of this workshop are: To increase awareness and understanding of the reasons why young people may use destructive and harmful behaviours. To develop competence and identify relevant skills to enable professionals to respond confidently when presented with and in identifying self-harming behaviours.
