Are All Behaviors the Same?

Research from neuroscience sheds new light on two main categories of behaviors: those that are intentional, planned, or otherwise known as “willful,” and those that are automatic or instinctual. 

Most educational and parenting programs don’t distinguish between the two.

In this webinar, Dr. Mona will show us why the distinction is so important and how we can learn to observe a child’s behavioral biomarkers to better address the wide range of behavioral challenges we see in children and teens.
