Skills & training courses

The coronavirus pandemic affected us all differently, with lockdowns and social distancing limiting in-person social interactions. Understanding the impact of disrupted relationships and experiences on your child or children may help you understand their emotional health now.

Understanding the impact of the pandemic on your teenager has been tailored to address the significance of this disruption in adolescence, a major development period for emotional wellbeing. It could help you to better understand your teenager’s behaviour. You may have noticed that their interests have changed, or that they are more anxious, or you might be worried about their social life.

This is a very short course designed to introduce some ideas about children’s emotional wellbeing and the impact of the pandemic. It is for all parents, grandparents and carers of teenagers and young people.
