LIVE WEBINAR: Redefining Consequence: Considerations and Strategies for Addressing Behaviors and Developing Emotional Functioning Skills; David L. Meichenbaum Ph.D., LCP
This seminar is designed for parents/caregivers, school personnel and community providers who live or work with a child who demonstrates recurring challenging behaviors. This presentation goes beyond determining what is causing challenging behaviors and examines how many conventional ways of responding to difficult behavior contribute to the persistence of challenges. Practical evidence-based strategies to decrease maladaptive behaviors, increase adaptive alternative behaviors, and evaluate the effectiveness of intervention plans will be offered. Attendees will consider whether their current means of responding to challenging behaviors include the necessary elements to build skills and curtail future problematic behaviors. Specific case examples will be provided.
Target Audience: Parents/Caregivers, School Personnel & Community Members that work with children with autism. All are welcome.
