"Have Fun and Do Your Best"
Supporting and preparing children for competitive events
Join Sally Neuberger, LCSW-C, for a frank and fast Zoom workshop on parenting children as they navigate the fun and fear of competition. From theater auditions to competitive clubs, contests, and sports teams, children can learn from these experiences and learn about themselves! This workshop will also discuss how to support neurotypical and neurodiverse children in navigating these valuable life experiences.
