The Mutismus Selbsthilfe Deutschland Association invites you to its 21st Mutism Conference in Erfurt in collaboriation with the Professorship for Inclusive Educational Processes in Language and Communication Impairments at the Faculty of Education at the University of Erfurt.

Mutism or psychogenic silence is a communication disorder in which there are no defects in the speech organs or hearing. The 21st Mutism Conference in Erfurt will once again offer insights into the world of selective mutism. The day will start with an opening presentation from Erfurt, which will provide exclusive insights into current projects. This will be followed by specialist presentations on hot topics such as the new definition of selective mutism in the ICD-11 or possible connections between high sensitivity and mutism. In addition to the lectures, the programme offers practice-oriented workshops on various topics, including the role of parents in supporting mutistic children, creative therapy approaches with a focus on attachment and safety as well as practical tools for everyday therapy.

Further information on the conference and the programme can be found on the event website.
