Welcome to the #SPAITGIRL Talk Show with Yvette Le Blowitz
EP.132 - Prizeworthy with Dr Mitch Abblett, Ph.D, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Consultant, Author
How to Meaningfully Connect, Build Character & Unlock The Potential of Every Child
Learn how skilfully prizing kids (rather than mindlessly praising) can be a game changer in your relationship as a parent, teacher, relative or helper.
Our Culture is addicted to "good job" our all purpose, feel good non-specific, or high-bar setting verbal praise especially when we talk to our kids.
Praise can put too much emphasis on controlling results, and kids can experience it as pressure and learn to fear failing in adults eyes.
By contrast, prizing is a game-changing mindset and set of specific skills the can help kids convert moments of emotional pain or stuckness into opportunities and possibilities for healthy change and growth.
In Prizeworthy, clinical psychologist Dr. Mitch Abblett, Ph.D introduces us to the skills of prizing and shows us what it looks like and how to do it in real-life situations.
Ablett also shares stories of how prizing has made a real difference in the lives of young people, parents, and professionals.
He offers a host of scientifically sound mindfulness and positive psychology-based practices for cultivating prizing at home, and in educational and therapeutic settings.
Dr. Mitch Abblett, Ph.D is a licensed clinical psychologist and consultant with a private practice.
He speaks and trains nationally and internationally on the applications of mindfulness for enhancing professional and personal communication patterns and effectiveness.
