ADHD: Addressing Core Needs: Understanding Misbehaviour

September 24 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm

Understanding the motivations behind challenging behaviours.

Understanding why people behave the way they do is a key determining element in knowing how to effectively meet our own needs. Based on the work of Rudolf Dreikurs, this session helps participants identify the 4 basic needs that produce unwanted and unhelpful (sometimes annoying) behaviours. Using the reactions that these bothersome behaviours often trigger in others as guiding principles, this session also helps participants reframe their response so interactions can be more appropriately focused and purposeful, thereby helping resolve the situation successfully and with less stress/frustration for everyone.

Facilitator:  Kim Silverthorn, B.A, R.P.C, M.P.C., C.T., Tacit Knowledge

Pre-registration is required. This workshop is offered over Zoom. The Zoom link will be emailed to registrants the day prior to the workshop.
