Synopsis

"Starting off as a child psychological practitioner can be daunting. There are so many things to learn: How do young people develop? What are the risk and protective factors for a range of psychological difficulties? How do you talk to young people and their families to assess their needs? What evidence informed approaches might help them resolve any difficulties? The path to gaining this knowledge and developing the necessary skills may seem challenging for the novice practitioner. For young people and their families, the path to addressing their psychological distress is equally challenging and at times very confusing. The young person may be frightened, overwhelmed and often lacking in hope. You offering them support and learning alongside them in a collaborative and curious fashion is a great starting point for helping them and becoming a competent child psychological practitioner as you do so. In your journey to becoming more confident in your skills, be compassionate and encouraging to yourself, just as you would be to the young people you work with. Notice the things you do well alongside the areas of practice you wish to improve, expect to make mistakes and aspire to learn from them"--
