If your child is approaching adolescence or has already entered it, you may be facing a number of questions. In this seminar, we will discuss:
- The characteristics of the adolescent period;
- The process of separation and how to go through it peacefully;
- How to talk to a teenager about personal boundaries and relationships;
- What to do if a teenager stops sharing their thoughts.
At the end of the meeting, you will have the opportunity to ask questions on the topic.
The seminar is conducted by:
Alexandra Primaikina - ABA specialist working with teenagers:
"I have been working with children with developmental features for 8 years. I received education in "special (defectological) education" at the Ural State Pedagogical University, completed a tutoring course with Anastasia Semyannikova at ABA-school, completed 5 modules of training for a behavioral analyst at 'Step Forward' and ACT courses from Ekaterina Krylova. I constantly improve my qualifications through articles, webinars, and supervisions.
During my work, I have been a tutor, therapist, curator of programs for children and teenagers with ASD and ADHD in various settings — from individual sessions to public places. I ran my own center, where I organized the work of the therapeutic team and collaboration with parents.
My main interest is working with teenagers with ASD, regardless of skill level. I have experience with teenagers who are both proficient in speech and those who lack speech comprehension and social skills. An important part of the work is correcting undesirable behavior and developing social skills in a natural environment: at home, school, playgrounds, and sections."
