About this listen

Episode 12: Guest Speaker Dr Kirstie Rees: The Mental Health & Wellbeing of Children and Young People with Learning Difficulties

The Curious Teachers are joined in this episode by Dr Kirstie Rees, child and educational psychologist and author of The Mental Health & Wellbeing of Children and Young People with Learning Difficulties: A Guide for Educators.

As a child and educational psychologist specialising in disability and neurodiversity, Kirstie has spent many years supporting families and schools to navigate complex situations and find practical solutions that make a positive difference to a child or young person’s wellbeing.

Kirstie believes that a child’s development is shaped by the environments they encounter and by how their needs are understood. The language used to talk about a child’s diagnosis, strengths, and challenges influences how they see themselves and how others respond to them.

An unmissable episode! Sit back, tune in and enjoy!
