Gifted youth are continuously overwhelmed with the intensity of their inner world and the unrest of our global conditions. In this session we will explore ways for children to effectively contend with isolation and loneliness, academic stress, and existential anxiety. Focus will be on building positive tools to cope with everyday tensions and construct self-acceptance, confidence, and health.
