Quick Recap:
Quick Recap:
- We started by checking in with each other, and talking about needs for the last session.
- We grounded ourselves with some breathing and gentle stretches.
- We discussed the Collaborative Problem Solving model: (1) Kids do well when they can; (2) When kids are not doing well, it is because they are struggling to meet our expectations; (3) Identify lagging skills and unsolved problems; (4) Solve problems proactively and collaboratively.
- We practiced using the script: "I've noticed that you're struggling with _______. What's up?" Empathize empathize empathize. "The thing is __________. How can we solve this problem?"
- We talked about how this practice makes us feel - "My parents didn't collaborate with me and I turned out okay. This makes me feel resentful." Or "I hear my parents' voices in my head, judging me."
- We closed with a Circle of Courage.
