About this Event
If you are new to a connection-based approach or you are looking for next steps, this opportunity is for you. Linda's teachings have widely benefitted our parenting, clinical work, and classroom pedagogy through the Declarative Language Handbook and the Co-Regulation Handbook. We are thrilled to have her joining us live and in-person for this customized learning and networking event!Participants will be invited to deeply explore topics such as co-regulation, declarative language, what to do when supports aren't working, how to help our child manage and learn from mistakes, and how to foster positive peer interactions. Join us for a day of information, resources, case examples, small group discussion, Q&A opportunities, and connection with other parents and professionals.
