Description
In this workshop we will introduce a conversation tool addressing the need for early and adequate follow-up strategies to prevent and reduce short- and long-term negative impact for young people exposed to bullying. This new tool supplements the broader anti-bullying resource developed by Livet&Sånn. Livet&Sånn, is a health and life mastery skills project for kindergartens, schools and others developed by Ålesund municipality, funded by Møre og Romsdal county municipality/ National public health program and is freely available. Samtaleverktøy etter mobbing is developed for school nurses and other professionals who are well-positioned to help youth exposed to bullying but lack tools and training. Combining elements from cognitive, trauma and emotion focused therapy, it directly addresses common harmful effects of bullying – using psychoeducation and a variety of relevant coping techniques to choose from. The tool also facilitates additional parental support throughout the process. The workshop includes presentations from different perspectives, participant involvement and discussion:
• Why this tool is needed: Anne-Hilde Lystad (Co-designer and Project manager) and Kristin Øksenvåg (Anti-bullying Ombudsman)
• Presentation of the tool: Kristin Valderhaug Martinsen (Co-designer and Clinical Psychologist) and Anne-Hilde Lystad
• User experiences
• Try-out session: Workshop participants are invited to test parts of the conversation tool
• Comments and questions from a research perspective: Selma Therese Lyng (Research Professor, Oslo Metropolitan University)
• Concluding Q & A and discussion
