Treatment for Selective Mutism in High School - Live Webinar

Treatment for Selective Mutism in High School - Live Webinar

Supporting a teen with Selective Mutism? This live webinar is for you.

Selective Mutism is a treatable anxiety disorder, but when it persists into high school, it becomes more complex – often tied in with issues like depression, school avoidance, and relationship difficulties.

Join this in-depth, evidence-based webinar designed to give you practical tools to support high school students with Selective Mutism. Led by experts from the Selective Mutism Clinic, this session will walk you through what actually works when treating teens – in and outside of the classroom.

What We’ll Cover: ✔️ How Selective Mutism presents in high school ✔️ A model for building a teen’s communication with peers and adults ✔️ Practical, evidence-based strategies that actually work ✔️ The role of a consistent support person (‘key worker’) ✔️ What classroom teachers and all school staff should know ✔️ How to engage and motivate families to seek treatment

Who Should Attend: High school classroom teachers and aides School psychologists and learning support teachers Parents and carers of teenagers with Selective Mutism Health professionals supporting teens with SM
