November 17th: "Helping Navigate ADHD and Impulsivity" Virutal Workshop

Does your child interrupt, act before thinking, struggle to wait their turn or have difficulty managing big emotions? For children with ADHD, these behaviors aren't always a matter of willpower or simply needing to try harder. Impulsivity can make it challenging to pause, think things through and manage emotional reactions.

Join Gina Holzapfel, NP, a pediatric neurology nurse practitioner at Stony Brook Children's Hospital, for a an informative and practical discussion about ADHD and impulsivity.

You'll learn why children with ADHD may struggle with self-control and emotional regulation, and discover ways to help your child navigate challenging behaviors with greater understanding, confidence and effective strategies.

Whether you're looking for new approaches or simply hoping to better understand your child's behavior, this workshop offers helpful insights for parents and caregivers..

Understanding what may be behind a child’s behavior (stress, anxiety, something else) can help parents reduce conflict, build connection and create a greater sense of safety and predictability at home.

During the October Parent Workshop presentation, our speaker shared two TED Talks that offer additional insight into the effects of trauma on children's behavior.
