ORPARC Training - Transitions: When Children Have to Move

Presented by Robyn Gobbel, LCSW

Despite what can sometimes be described as heroic efforts, we can’t stop children from having to navigate difficult transitions during their time in foster care. We CAN take important steps to ease these transitions, decreasing the risk of traumatic grief and increasing the possibility of resilience. Successful transitions require adults to be thoughtful, present, and attuned to children’s needs.

• the neurobiology behind why transitions are so challenging
• what adults can do to lessen the trauma of a transition
• how to support children through the intensity of their feelings related to another transition,
• the importance of open, honest, and authentic communication with even the youngest of children

Presenter - Robyn Gobbel, LCSW LMSW RPT-S, has been described as “Neuroscience with heart…wrapped in glitter and fun!” Robyn translates the complex science of the Relational Neurosciences (that’s just fancy talk for the parts of the brain that keep us in connection with ourselves and everyone else) for helpers, healers, educators, and parents. She helps people feel empowered to use the knowledge in supporting the world-changing work you are already doing- you know…helping, healing, educating, and parenting! She is a speaker, trainer, and writer who specializes in adoption, attachment, and trauma. Her greatest superpower is being with people in a way that makes them feel seen, gotten, heard, and deeply cared for.

Training in collaboration with ORPARC and Providence Swindells Resource Center and ODHS Child Welfare.
