Description
When it comes to the “uncontrollable” child—who may have a diagnosis of ODD, DMDD, ADHD, severe impulse control, or emotional dysregulation—the rules are different…
…and it requires a powerful set of skills and tools, used at exactly the right time, to help them and their parents get unstuck and go from escalating emotions to the balance of acceptance and change.
Join Matis Miller, LCSW, parent training expert and author of the groundbreaking book, The Uncontrollable Child, as he guides you through the most effective DBT-based techniques to help parents understand their child’s behavior, define their child’s strengths and challenges, and see the tools they have.
In this comprehensive parent training, you’ll learn how to skillfully integrate targeted strategies and practices for acceptance, mindfulness, validation, behavior-change and limit-setting that’ll empower parents to revolutionize their parenting skills and restore peace, limits and love with their children. Attend and you’ll confidently be able to:
- Relate effectively to the struggles and thought patterns of children and parents
- Identify and overcome the roadblocks that hinder progress
- Teach parents to manage their own behavior
- Decrease noncompliant, disruptive, and aggressive behavior in children
- Ensure the child feels loved, accepted, and understood
- And more!
The concepts you’ll learn are tailored to each client’s unique perspective, adapted for real life, and imparted in a clear and relatable style. When a parent who’s completely exhausted and at their wits end because nothing they’ve tried works with their child walks through your door, you’ll be ready! Register today!
