At Quirky Kid, we believe that mental health in childhood and adolescence lays the foundation for a balanced, resilient and fulfilling life. Supporting the wellbeing of a young person isn’t just a responsibility - it is a shared mission between parents, educators and mental health professionals.
That’s why we are excited to share a unique opportunity for colleagues in Brazil to learn from Dr. Kimberly O’Brien, one of Australia’s leading child psychologists and her work in socio-emotional development.
Mental Health in Children and Adolescents - Challenges and Possible Pathways
Join us for an inspiring and insightful session where Dr. O’Brien will explore real-life challenges children and adolescents face today - from anxiety to academic pressure to social media and emotional regulation - and provide practical strategies to promote mental wellbeing.
