It was excellent to learn about the ways that children and adults have been programmed to seek belonging and validation. It was fascinating to learn about the "goals" of misbehavior, and how our personal feelings when we are faced with challenging behavior can give us insight on the child's goal.

It is so apparent that Dr. Gfroerer is well-versed in the theories of Adler and Dreikurs and current research on positive behavior support, minimizing chzllegning behaviors and supporting young children's social-emotional development. As a speaker, she was very easy to listen to. Comparing the benefits of adults using encourgement over praise was well stated and well supported with research. She provided us with a plethoa of tools and excellent examples on how to use them.

I appreciate all that was shared, but especially the deeper understanding of personality variables and how I react to stress, and where/what in my early life influenced this development in myself, so I can work on changing that "story" and be more impactful in my work, and life in general. Thank you!

This presentation is so valuable to me as both a SLP, ADHD Rehab Service Provider, and parent of a neurodivergent kindergartener who struggles with emotional and behavioral regulation. It was very helpful to learn about the different types of behaviors and underlying coded messages to help guide reactions, responses, and regulation strategies. I also very much appreciated learning models of 'praise' vs. 'encouragement.' Finally, I was glad to have additional resources.

This was a new approach to understanding and addressing challenging behaviors that I hadn't heard of before, so I appreciated the perspective, and the very specific ways to identify which of the 4 drivers of behaviors we are seeing and how to respond accordingly. The psychology behind it makes sense. It won't work in every situation, but nothing will, so it's good to have a new set of skills/knowledge base in my repertoire. The instructor was easy to learn from.
