The Power of Showing Up: Clinical Application of Interpersonal Neurobiology, and Supporting Parents of Teens with the Brain in Mind

Clinical Application of Interpersonal Neurobiology, and Supporting Parents of Teens with the Brain in Mind

In-person workshop by Tina Payne Bryson, PhD, clinician, consultant, and internationally recognized author of two New York Times Best Sellers The Whole-Brain Child and No-Drama Discipline, and The Yes Brain and The Power of Showing Up,  co-authored with Dan Siegel.

In this two-day, workshop Tina will look at what the science says about the best predictors for how kids and teens develop, and how clinicians can work with parents in two main areas: cultivating secure attachment, and responding to challenges, both the run-of-the-mill kind and more significant social and emotional issues. Drawing on attachment and child development research, the science of interpersonal neurobiology, and clinical experience, she’ll discuss the latest scientific research–with a special emphasis on neuroplasticity and the changing brain–in a way that’s clear, interesting, and immediately practical.

Participants will learn:

• Apply the framework of interpersonal neurobiology to child development, clinical practice, and parenting in a clinical setting.
• Be intentional about teaching specific caregiving and intervention approaches to shape how children’s brains are wired.
• Learn tools and ways of communicating with parents that clinicians can use immediately in sessions with parents.
• Understand implicit memory, and how to work with, and even effectively use our own emotional and physiological responses/reactions when working with families and their trauma.
• Utilize Whole-Brain strategies to lay the groundwork for promoting integration and mental health in parents and their children.
• Utilize intervention and questions for reflection to support the development of parental earned secure attachment and the building of a coherent narrative.
