Teaching Happiness: Practices to Support Our Wellbeing / Enseñando Felicidad: Prácticas Para Apoyar Nuestro Bienestar
In this webinar we will briefly overview the study of Positive Psychology and a definition of happiness. We will then understand the specific behaviors, thoughts, and feelings that we can practice to impact our happiness. Bio: I am a School Adjustment Counselor at a local public high school where I provide mental health support to students and co-teach a class titled “Psychology and the Good Life.”. After starting my career in human resources at a financial services company, I quickly realized I did not feel a sense of purpose and fulfillment in my work. Ultimately, I went to graduate school where I majored in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a focus on School and Community Counseling. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and have a small private practice providing young adults with therapeutic support. As of 2024, I am also an instructor in the Counseling Psychology Graduate Program at Framingham State University.
En este webinario revisaremos brevemente el estudio de la Psicología Positiva y una definición de felicidad. Luego comprenderemos los comportamientos, pensamientos y sentimientos específicos que podemos practicar para influir en nuestra felicidad. Biografía: Soy Consejera de Adaptación Escolar en una escuela secundaria pública local donde proporciono apoyo de salud mental a los estudiantes y co-enseño una clase titulada "Psicología y la Buena Vida". Después de comenzar mi carrera en recursos humanos en una empresa de servicios financieros, me di cuenta rápidamente de que no sentía un sentido de propósito y realización en mi trabajo. Finalmente, fui a la escuela de posgrado donde me especialicé en Consejería Clínica de Salud Mental con un enfoque en Consejería Escolar y Comunitaria. Soy un consejero de salud mental con licencia y tengo una pequeña práctica privada que proporciona a los adultos jóvenes con el apoyo terapéutico. A partir de 2024, también soy un instructor en el Programa de Posgrado de Psicología de asesoramiento en la Universidad Estatal de Framingham.

Becca Gibson is a dynamic presenter who combines lived experience, research, and hands-on therapeutic practice to delve into the often-overlooked realm of youth who present with non-stereotypical ADHD traits.

Unlocking Potential: Nurturing Multimodal Learning and Play with Children / Desbloquear el Potencial: Fomentar el Aprendizaje Multimodal y el Juego Con Los niños
Our children engage in rich, meaning-making experiences at home and in their communities. Children make sense of the world around them through multiple modes such as linguistic, visual, aural, spatial, and gestural, and the interplay of these modalities. This talk will explore how children navigate their world - online and in-person through these modalities and how we, as educators and caregivers, can cultivate this learning at home and in schools. Join us as we delve into multimodal learning by first learning from our children by drawing upon their knowledge and insights and then providing practical insights into incorporating a more playful and joyful learning experience.
Nuestros hijos participan en experiencias ricas y significativas en casa y en sus comunidades. Los niños dan sentido al mundo que les rodea a través de múltiples modos como el lingüístico, visual, auditivo, espacial y gestual, y la interacción de estas modalidades. Esta sesión explorará cómo los niños navegan por su mundo -en línea y en persona- a través de estas modalidades y cómo nosotros, como educadores y cuidadores, podemos cultivar este aprendizaje en casa y en la escuela. Acompáñenos mientras profundizamos en el aprendizaje multimodal, primero aprendiendo de nuestros hijos, basándonos en sus conocimientos y perspectivas, y después aportando ideas prácticas para incorporar una experiencia de aprendizaje más lúdica y alegre.

Autism & Intersectionality / Autismo e Interseccionalidad
Autism is a neurodevelopmental phenomenon that anyone can be born with. However, there are observable differences in which autistic individuals are identified as autistic, and when. Autism is often identified later, if at all, in folks who are marginalized when it comes to factors such as gender, sex assigned at birth, and/or race. This presentation will discuss why this happens, why it matters, and what we can do about it. We will explore signs to look out for, particularly in those socialized as girls. We will also discuss ways of supporting autistic folks at home and at school, regardless of whether they have been officially diagnosed.
El autismo es un fenómeno del neurodesarrollo con el que puede nacer cualquier persona. Sin embargo, existen diferencias observables en cuanto a qué individuos autistas son identificados como tales y cuándo. A menudo, el autismo se identifica más tarde, si es que se identifica, en personas marginadas por factores como el género, el sexo asignado al nacer y/o la raza. En esta presentación se discutirá por qué ocurre esto, por qué es importante y qué podemos hacer al respecto. Exploraremos las señales a las que hay que prestar atención, especialmente en las personas socializadas como niñas. También discutiremos formas de apoyar a los autistas en casa y en la escuela, independientemente de si han sido diagnosticados oficialmente.

Resources to assist with children’s development of the competencies, such as children’s literature selections and activities, will be introduced through audience engagement and participation.

Ongoing: Building Resiliency: A Group for Caregivers of Neurodivergent Children
Thursday October 19th - November 16th 7:00-8:15PM
The Chris Walsh Center is excited to announce our first caregiver support group for fall 2023: Building Resiliency: A Group for Caregivers of Neurodivergent Children. The support group is hosted by two mental health clinicians, Deborah McMakin, Ed.D., M.A., LICSW and Jessica Ames, a Licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW).
Come join this 5-week support group, taking place online and starting October 19th at 7:00 PM, to engage in family resilience building activities and take time for yourself with caregivers on a similar journey. Caregivers will have the opportunity to learn from and support each other over the course of the 5 weeks we spend together, therefore we ask that you register for the first meeting and attend as many meetings as possible.
Caring for a neurodivergent child is a journey with unexpected joys and challenges. While caregivers often enjoy their child's strengths, unique personalities and accomplishments, they may also face unique challenges, such as how and when to communicate their child’s learning and emotional needs to others, how to advocate for their child and teach them to advocate for themselves, and how to focus on their child’s unique abilities rather than labels or misconceptions.
Group topics include strengthening relationships (with your child and their supporters), increasing your child’s self confidence and self advocacy skills (helping them define their own goals and build their resiliency), as well as managing and reframing unwanted labels in your community. Skill building exercises, discussions, as well as time for mutual support and questions will be part of each session.
Dr. Liza Talusan presents:
The Identity-Conscious Educator: Building Habits and Skills for More Inclusive Schools
Tuesday, March 21, 2023 from 7-8:30 pm
Based on Dr. Talusan’s recent book of the same title, this 90-minute workshop is focused on building knowledge, engaging in reflection, and moving to action. Identity very much informs our daily work, even if we have not built the habits and skills for seeing its impact. Building an identity-conscious practice means realizing that who we are informed and impacts how we act, interact, and how we see the world around us. To do this, we need tools to explore what our identities are, how they shape our views, and how we might work towards greater inclusion and equity.
Film Screening: Autism goes to College
Tuesday, April 4, 2023 from 7-8:45 pm

Navigating the MA Special Education System
Thursdays in March 2023
Topic:
What is a 504? What is an IEP? Does my child need a 504 or an IEP? How does my child get evaluated for one? What does eligibility determination mean? What services are provided in an IEP? What is an advocate, and do I need one? What is my role as the parent of a child on an IEP and how do I support my child that is on an IEP? What is my child’s role? What do I do if I am told my child doesn’t need an IEP and I disagree? If you have any of these or other questions about the special education process and system, you are not alone! Supporting your child who is on or might need a 504 or an IEP can be very confusing and daunting. We want to help you by providing information, answering your questions, and providing support so you can navigate the process for your child.
