ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
Too often, we view a young person’s behavioral differences as items on a checklist rather than understanding that observed behaviors are a way of adapting to how the individual processes information and the impact of their environment. That impact is particularly true for young people today during the pandemic, those who manage sensory and executive functioning challenges, autistic youth, and individuals experiencing trauma. This virtual workshop provides an opportunity to learn more about the concepts from brain science that help us understand why some young people experience high rates of behavioral challenges and what we can do differently to better support them. Dr. Delahooke will describe behaviors as the tip of the “Developmental Iceberg” and essential signals that we should address by seeking to understand a young person’s individual differences in the overarching context of relational safety.
This workshop will provide helpful worksheets and charts for educators, early childhood interventionists, and providers across disciplines, including tools and techniques to reduce behavioral challenges and promote psychological resilience and satisfying, secure relationships.
Goals:
1. Learn about the paradigm shift that is beginning across the country based on neuroscience research of the past decade.
2. Understand the four states of the nervous system that inform us what to do in real-time when managing a young person’s behavioral challenges.
3. Understand how neurodevelopment progresses along a predictable trajectory.
4. Learn how to contextualize your current intervention approaches to align with each young person’s neurodevelopmental ability.
