School Mental Health: Treating Students K-12

Given the unprecedented challenges of the pandemic, schools are forced to adapt the ways in which they meet the educational needs as well as to support the emotional wellbeing of students. The course is designed to provide the learner with the evolving understanding of how to recognize the gaps in learning and design appropriate educational interventions. The emphasis is on practical and timely clinical information and skills based on research, including evidence-based practices, and innovative learning strategies. We will use live streaming, electronic Q & A, and other remote learning technologies.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:

  • Describe the effects of social media on depressive and anxiety symptoms in teens.
  • Develop techniques from dialectical behavioral therapy to help students who are experiencing a range of mental health issues.
  • Relate the risks of vaping and introduce strategies for reducing vaping among students.
  • Recognize the stress of the pandemic in students and provide coping methods.
  • Identify language disorders that can present as behavioral dysregulation and intervene successfully.
  • Discuss compassion fatigue and how to better support traumatized children.
  • Explain strategies to help students with different processing speeds succeed.

Target Audience

This course is intended for all health and mental health clinicians, educators, administrators, researchers, and others interested in the development and treatment of school-aged children and adolescents.
