Meeting Agenda

Event Agenda
Time Description
7:00 pm - 7:05 pm Item I: Opening Prayer/Meet and Greet
7:05 pm - 7:15 pm Item II: Bishop Yvan Mathieu, OAPCE Liaison Bishop Year End Reflection
7:15 pm - 7:30 pm Item III: Emotion Coaching Made Simple: A Practical Guide for Parents and Professionals. This brief presentation will focus on helping parents and professionals distinguish between emotions and behaviours, recognizing that behaviours are often communication. Participants will learn a simple 2-step validation and emotion coaching approach that can be used in everyday moments to help children feel understood while still supporting boundaries and problem-solving. We will also explore how different emotions have different needs, for example, anxiety often needs reassurance paired with gradual exposure. This practical presentation is designed to provide attendees with immediately usable strategies to support emotional development and regulation in children and teens.

Dr. Michelle Fardella & Dr. Stephanie Lavoie are licensed clinical psychologists in Ontario. They have experience working in community mental health, private practice, hospital, and school settings. They are published researchers, active clinicians providing assessments and therapies, and provide training for graduate students. They founded WonderTree Child, Adolescent, and Family practice in 2023, a multidisciplinary clinic in Orangeville and virtually across the province and beyond. They have a team of over 30 individuals who support children, teens, young adults, and their families across a variety of areas.
