SUMMARY:10 Practical Strategies to Help Your Children Improve Their Executive Function Skills:  How to Plan; Organize; Initiate & Complete Tasks; Manage Time; Self-Regulate; Be Flexible; and More
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, April 4 10 a.m.-noon\, Wilton Library \nLicensed clinical psychologist Mary Murphy PhD\, LACD and psychotherapist Elizabeth Driscoll Jorgensen\, CADC will explain the complex topics of executive function and working memory–crucial aspects of a child’s ability to succeed in school and with everyday tasks. They will emphasize how you can assist your child in developing and implementing helpful strategies. \nChildren and teens with Executive Function deficits have difficulties managing time constructively; setting goals appropriately; controlling emotional and behavioral impulses; prioritizing; sustaining attention; planning and organizing; starting tasks and following through; self-regulating; and making mature judgments regarding right & wrong and cause & effect. \nIn readily understandable terms\, Dr. Mary Murphy and Elizabeth Jorgensen will explain the complex topics of executive function and working memory – crucial aspects of a child’s ability to be successful in school and with everyday tasks – with an emphasis on how parents can assist them in developing and implementing helpful strategies. \nLicensed clinical psychologist Mary Murphy specializes in counseling\, executive function and academic coaching\, psychological testing\, psychotherapy\, and biofeedback. Her counseling practice focuses on helping children and adolescents affected by mood disorders\, neurological conditions\, and substance use. Dr. Murphy’s unique training and clinical experience allows her to look at patients through multiple relevant lenses to evaluate the impact that emotional symptoms\, learning/cognitive issues\, medical conditions and/or substance use may have on their ability to reach their true potential in school. Dr. Murphy completed advanced fellowship training at the Yale School of Medicine. She currently is a professor at Westconn. \nPsychotherapist Elizabeth Driscoll Jorgensen has over two decades of experience specializing in adolescent psychotherapy and substance abuse counseling. The recipient of a 1994 Congressional Award for her work\, Ms. Jorgensen is a recognized expert in engaging resistant teens and motivating them to change\, a consultant to independent schools and agencies\, and a popular speaker on parenting pre-teens and teenagers. \nRegistration information will be available soon–visit the Wilton Library website. \nQuestions/Comments: info@spednetwilton.org

SUMMARY:NAMI Wilton Parent Support Group
DESCRIPTION:Has the back-to-school honeymoon worn off? As school gets into full swing\, the academic and social stresses can get to be too much\, and result in behavioral changes. The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Child and Adolescent Network (CAN) is a support group for parents of children with behavioral\, emotional and mental health issues. The meeting is free\, confidential\, safe and led by trained volunteer facilitators who themselves have had personal experiences raising children with these concerns. Parents come from Redding\, Weston\, Westport\, Wilton and towns in the surrounding area.

SUMMARY:Wilton YMCA Free Parent Workshop:  Tools for Working with Anxiety
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by the Wilton Family YMCA\, this free parent workshop\, “Tools for Working with Anxiety\,” will introduce practical tools to interrupt the anxiety loop by purposefully cueing an activation of our parasympathetic nervous system. Using mindful awareness\, breath\, and body we will explore ways to shift our nervous systems from a state of “fight\, flight\, or freeze” to a place of “rest and digest.” \nThe workshop is presented by Jennifer Barrett\, who has been working with children for over two decades. She is the founder of We Grow Yoga and provides yoga and mindful awareness training to children of all ages as well as to the teachers and parents who guide them. She holds degrees in elementary and special needs education from Boston College. She has a 20 year dedicated yoga practice\, and is an active and registered member of Yoga Alliance. She is certified both through ChildLight Yoga and holds a 200 hour teacher certification through Breathe For Change with the lens of bringing yoga and mindful awareness practices to school communities. She especially loves her work as a mother of three amazing sons and as a meditation facilitator for The Community Mindfulness Project. \nRegister here on the Wilton YMCA website and search “Parent Workshop.” \nEmail Kim Murphy or Kimberly Fejes with questions.
