Parents Dealing with Children’s Anger and Related Emotions

The Verdugo Hills Autism Project presents a workshop that will address core issues and identify strategies that work for dealing with children's anger and related emotions.

Topics covered include:

  • Defining this often times misunderstood and complex emotion - ANGER - both its constructive and destructive qualities;
  • Biology piece - how the emotional brain gets hijacked and unleashes the limbic system (tying in ideas from “The Whole Brain Child” and “Treating the Explosive Child”)
  • De-escalation/Intro to Crisis Prevention Interventions adapted to Parents (what strategy is used at what stage of escalation)
  • Parent’s Coping Strategies to preserve stamina and managing their own emotions

Cost is $35, some scholarships are available. Register at 818.386.1094, x. 105.
