Boosting Resiliency in Adolescent Girls – Susan Fee (Digital Seminar)

Description

Stand Up. Speak Out. Be Confident.

This is what we tell girls—expect of girls—especially, when they are faced with adversity.

But, how can teenage girls have the confidence to “have a voice” and “be themselves” when the confusing female culture we live in, demands that, in order to fit in with our peers, we must be similar?

Teach them resiliency!

Empower girls with the skills to balance the social pressure of fitting in (sameness) with the recognition of strengths (uniqueness).

Watch national speaker and author Susan Fee, M.Ed., NCC, LMHC, as she teaches you how to skillfully use practical strength-based interventions to help girls strengthen and maximize resiliency, develop stress management skills and reduce anxiety and depression.

So what is NLP?
NLP stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming. Neuro refers to your neurology;
Linguistic refers to language; programming refers to how that neural language functions.
In other words, learning NLP is like learning the language of your own mind!

NLP is the study of excellent communication–both with yourself, and with others.
It was developed by modeling excellent communicators and therapists who got results with their clients.
NLP is a set of tools and techniques, but it is so much more than that.
It is an attitude and a methodology of knowing how to achieve your goals and get results
