Description

What if there’s another way?  What if it’s not actually about behaviour at all?

Join Dr. Mona Delahooke, licensed clinical psychologist and expert in neurodevelopmental interventions for children with developmental, behavioural, emotional, and learning differences, for this compelling session that will fundamentally shift your view of oppositional behaviour in children and adolescents.

Dr. Delahooke seamlessly weaves together neuroscience with real-life, common scenarios by offering a practical roadmap to help transform your response to behaviour problems.  You’ll learn:

  • The missing piece to understanding behaviour:  Neuroception
  • Why behaviour contracts and incentives fail to yield long-term success
  • How to discern between intentional behaviour and stress responses
  •  “Bottom-up” interventions you can use right away
  • And more!

If you work with children and adolescents who misbehave even occasionally, this training is for you – purchase today!

Objectives

  1. Categorize specific behaviours as they relate to each of the three basic pathways of the autonomic nervous system (ANS).
  2. Utilize neuroception-informed interventions, including physiological co-regulation and interpersonal engagement, to treat oppositional behaviour. 
  3. Appraise the efficacy of integrating the Polyvagal Theory into “behaviour management” programs. 

Outline

Behaviour Challenges:  Intentional Choice or Stress Response?

  • What the Polyvagal Theory brings to the “behaviour management” table
  • The autonomic nervous system (ANS)
  • Neuroception:  How children’s brains perceive safety and stress (and what that means for behaviour)
  • Is ODD a behaviour disorder, or a nervous system looking for relational safety?

Clinical Strategies for Building Relational Safety and Security

  • Getting started:  Matching a given behaviour to corresponding ANS pathway
  • Discerning between an intentional behaviour and a stress response
  • Co-regulation, warmth and interpersonal engagement
  • How to reach the “unreachable” kids and teens
  • What about behaviour contracts and incentive plans?
