Dr Le recently delivered a training workshop on gaming disorder to 30 counsellors from Relationships Australia over 2 days

2 Day Gaming Disorder Workshop with Relationships Australia South Australia

There has been an increase in demand for workplace workshops on how to work with young people where excessive gaming was a serious problem.

This workshop showcased over 6 years worth of clinical experience in an engaging and dynamic way, including role playing. On the final day, we also had a film crew from ABC's Four Corners program to see how important this issue is in our community.

Some of the objectives the participants requested were:

• What is addiction?
• How to support children
• How to address parent's fears and how to talk to parents
• How to deal with aggression
• Risk factors for gaming disorder
• Addressing the family system and attachment

Testimonials from the workshop participants:

Workshop participants put to work applying their newly acquired skills in live role playing clinical scenarios, where they received immediate feedback and encouragement to enhance their learning.

"I enjoyed discussing cases and practicing them live. The training gave me more insight and understanding about what is happening in the gaming industry. Any parents in the community would benefit from such training in order to gain more insight about what today’s online gaming world."

"I found Dr Kim to be engaging and informative. He maintained my attention throughout the full two days. I walked away from the training with strategies, resources, and a confidence that I did not have prior to my time with Dr Kim."

- RASA counsellor

"Dr Kim’s presentation provided excellent quality and up to date information for practitioners working with people experiencing IGD. I feel that my work practice has benefited from this training and my understanding of IGD and the factors present that lead to harmful gaming and internet behaviours has been much improved."
