** BOOK CLUB: BEYOND BEHAVIORS<br>
------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
Our quarterly book club meetings are a chance to connect and reconnect with other parents while exploring a range of topics related to raising children. Come to the book club ready to discuss what you learned while reading the book selected for that session – what you liked, what was useful, and what didn’t make sense. The book club meetings are highly interactive with lots of discussion.<br>
<br>
In October, Dr. Mona Delahooke, Ph.D. will join us as we discuss her new book, Beyond Behaviors: Using Brain Science and Compassion to Understand and Solve Children’s Behavioral Challenges. In Beyond Behaviors, Dr. Delahooke describes behaviors as the tip of the iceberg, important signals that we should address by seeking to understand a child’s individual differences in the context of relational safety. This accessible book offers professionals, educators and parents tools and techniques to reduce behavioral challenges while promoting psychological resilience and satisfying, secure relationships.<br>
