Parent Coaching to Support Social-Emotional and Communication Development in Early Intervention (On Demand Webinar) (PD102590)
Speech-language pathologists in early intervention who support families of children with both language and social-emotional delays face questions like: How do I help parents to recognize their child's needs? How do I understand the impact of parent mental health on child development? What are some of the ways that speech and language skills and social-emotional development overlap? This webinar addresses these types of questions by exploring evidence-based strategies for supporting social-emotional skill development, examining the impact of grief and trauma on parent engagement and language, explaining attachment styles, and sharing strategies for building parent capacity.

Course Reviews
"I absolutely loved this course. I really appreciated the deep dive into temperament and attachment styles and their relation to communication. I feel inspired and more prepared to start conversations with families around this topic in order to promote their child's communication."
"I loved seeing how some aspects of your work as a social worker relate directly to communication and the work of SLPs. I also found there to be a lot of theoretical information that relates to issues we encounter every day as professionals. It felt like a good refresher on many aspects, while also still including some new information or a different perspective on previous knowledge."
"Naomi Grinney clearly explained all concepts. She explained all definitions in great details. She gave very meaningful and pragmatic suggestions for how a speech pathologist can facilitate social-emotional and communication development. All graphs were very informative. I especially liked how Naomi Grinney spoke about the temperament characteristics of her four children. Her personal examples were really helpful and interesting."
