Webinar
Dr. Adelia Sabintsev was honored to present a webinar for the Selective Mutism Association:
How to Bounce Back After a “Mistake” When Supporting a Child with Selective Mutism
Parents, educators, and professionals often worry about making mistakes when supporting a child with Selective Mutism. In this webinar, Dr. Sabintsev discusses what to do when brave talking exercises or exposures don’t go as planned—and how to adjust in the moment while continuing to support progress.
The central message: Progress doesn’t require perfect exposures. Through flexibility, practice, and thoughtful adjustments, adults can navigate challenging moments while helping children continue moving forward with brave talking.
