NEW WORKSHOP
Supporting the Emotions & Intensity of Gifted Children Workshop Series
A 5-Session Virtual Workshop Series - April 2026
This live, virtual 5-part workshop series was developed to help parents of gifted children better understand their child’s experience, emotions, and unique development. Gifted children often experience emotional intensity, heightened sensitivities, and asynchronous development. While these traits are part of their strengths, they can also raise questions for parents about how best to support their child’s emotions and well-being.
The workshop series was developed to provide opportunities for connection, enhance parents’ understanding of their gifted child, offer emotion-focused strategies and skills, and support parents in building their self-efficacy and confidence in managing their gifted children’s emotions and intensities.
What You'll Leave With:
- A deeper understanding of gifted children’s emotional intensity and development
- Practical, emotion-focused strategies to support emotions and intensity
- Increased confidence and self-efficacy in responding to your gifted child
- Greater awareness of your role and reactions as parents
- Connection and collaboration with other parents of gifted children
Research on this workshop model has demonstrated improvements in parents’ confidence, skills, and understanding. Parents also reported increased connection, reduced isolation, and a stronger perceived ability to support their children’s emotions and intensities.
