Artswork Professional Development: Supporting Positive Mental Health in Young People

With the Coronavirus pandemic exacerbating an already alarming mental health crisis in young people, supporting the mental wellbeing of those you work with has never been more critical than it is today.

Artswork Professional Development’s two-part online course will give you a better understanding of the needs of the young people you work with, help you to create a culture of compassion, reflection, and healing through the arts, and support positive mental health.

This course is split over two days:

Monday 21st June (10:00am – 4:00pm)

Monday 28th June (10:00am – 4:00pm)

Created and delivered by artist & therapist Charlie Henry and OYAP's Creative Director Helen Le Brocq, our trainers will share insights & theories from their professional journeys. Over two days, Charlie and Helen will explore psychological theory (neuroscience, attachment theory, managing trauma), mental health issues and illnesses, guidance on the best practice working with vulnerable people, ways to look after your own wellbeing, and how to balance the needs of individuals in group situations.
