2026 NETCA Presents: Building Adolescent Resilience

When:  Fri, Sep 18, 2026 from 10:00 AM to 01:00 PM (CT)

This interactive training explores adolescent resilience through counseling strategies grounded in the Oaklander model. Participants will engage in activities designed to increase emotional awareness, support self-expression, and strengthen adaptive coping skills. Through experiential interventions such as creative expression, reflective exercises, and movement-based activities, attendees will learn strategies for fostering resilience, enhancing self-regulation, and promoting protective factors in school and clinical settings. Emphasis is placed on translating experiential techniques into real-world counseling practice. Participants will leave with ready-to-use interventions and deeper understanding of how experiential approaches can be used to support adolescent resilience and development.
