Brain-Body Therapy for Kids: The Brain-Body Approach

$129.99 Standard

When the children you work with don’t show progress despite your best efforts, it’s time for a course correction that considers what our field too often misses: how humans actually regulate their emotions and behaviors. In this session, you’ll learn how to maximize treatment outcomes for children and teens by factoring in a client’s physiological state, or the body’s autonomic platform, in all behavioral expressions and at every developmental stage. You’ll explore:

  • How to measure neuroception and the internal state of a child and parent (without fancy gadgets)
  • How to measure a child’s social and emotional developmental processes to determine the best point of entry and where to focus clinical work
  • Integrating individual differences in parents and children in therapy
  • Why we need to shift away from individual child psychotherapy to dyadic work with caregivers

Here's What You'll Learn


  • New clinical concepts that are changing the way we treat emotion regulation issues in children
  • Discovering a new paradigm for targeting behaviors: Categorical vs dimensional clinical thinking
  • The four pathways of the nervous system you can use to determine how to best manage a child’s behavioral challenge
  • The role of Polyvagal Theory in effective treatment of child behavioral issues
  • The subconscious and conscious processes that influence social and emotional development
  • Implement a model for working with anxious children and school refusal
  • Limitations of the model and discuss implications of the research

Everything You're Getting


  • 2 hours of video content
  • CE information to come
  • Handouts and resources
