Supporting Young People with Selective Mutism
We are pleased to offer this webinar via Zoom on Monday 21st October 2024 at 5.30pm – 6.30pm
Join us for an insightful webinar led by Julie Cota, Specialist Speech and Language Therapist, as she guides you through the nuances of Selective Mutism (sometimes known as Situational Mutism). SM is anxiety based and presents as an individual not being able to speak in certain situations, whilst being able to do so freely in others.
This engaging session, hosted on Zoom, is your key to understanding what Selective Mutism is, (what it isn’t) and discovering effective ways to support children and young people in their daily lives.
*PLEASE NOTE that due to the funding we received to run these events, it is only for families, not professionals*.
