MindKiwi

This webinar will give attendees the chance to hear/learn about the Aotearoa mental health context for children and families and our focus on transdiagnostic emotion dysregulation. We will discuss how indigenous knowledge (mātauranga Māori) has been interwoven with core concepts of mindfulness and ACT in this whole-of-family programme; the importance of metaphor in this interweaving, how and why this programme was converted to an online web-based format and a review of early research findings. We will discuss unique aspects of our programme, including its early intervention focus, the importance of bicultural partnership in design and leadership and the whole-of-family approach to child mental health.

This session will be recorded for ANZ ACBS chapter members.
