Denette Mann, LPC-S, will be presenting Mindful Self-Compassion for Teens and Adolescents. This will be an introduction on the what and how of both mindfulness and self-compassion. There will be experiential exercises, a meditation, videos,and a focus on how mindfulness and self-compassion change the brain, and the benefits that result from learning these skills. She will also focus specifically on how these skills are taught to the teenage and young adult population through the program 'Making Friends With Yourself' taken from the Mindful Self-Compassion course developed by Dr. Kristin Neff and Dr. Christopher Germer. The research that has been done to demonstrate the efficacy of the program will also be presented.
