Descriptions:
Children From Hard Places and the Brain:
This video explores the impact of trauma on a developing brain and explains how fear and chronic stress damage the structure, wiring, and chemistry of the brain. This puts children at risk for a lifetime of social, learning, and behavioral problems if there isn’t intervention. Children from Hard Places and the Brain features experts Dr. Tina Payne Bryson, Dr. Karyn Purvis, and Dr. David Cross, and offers practical advice and tips for leading children of all ages – even teens – to new levels of healing.
Facilitating Behavioral Change:
Tragically, children with histories of abuse, neglect, or trauma have often lost the ability to trust loving adults. Because of their difficult backgrounds, these children are more likely to display confusing, fear-driven behaviors that are often mistaken for aggression or mental illness. In this presentation, Dr. Karyn Purvis explores the Connecting and Correcting Principles of Trust-Based Relational Intervention® and provides practical insights on how to use TBRI®tactics in real-life situations.
