More on the Panda program:
The PANDA program caters to parents and children ages 7-12 who experience difficulties in emotion regulation, often related to a previous trauma history. Through creative play taking place over eight small group sessions the children work on mindfulness techniques, narrative intervention, and cognitive behavioral strategies. An additional three sessions for parents provide further support for the family as a whole. All sessions are led and facilitated by trained professionals in childhood mental health. Panda was developed by Prof. Ruth Pat-Horenczyk and Sarit Schram-Yavin.
