The Brain Science of Behavior

​More kids today are living in a constant state of stress showing up as anxiety, meltdowns, withdrawal, irritability, or shutdown. And most parenting advice unintentionally makes it worse.

​In this live, parent-focused webinar, Dr. Lisa Riegel will break down what’s actually happening in your child’s brain under stress and what they need instead.

​This session is designed for parents who:

• ​Feel like their child is “always on edge”

• ​Are worried about anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or burnout

• ​Don’t want to jump straight to labels or medication

• ​Want practical tools they can use right away
  
  

​What you’ll learn:

• ​How to tell the difference between misbehavior and nervous system dysregulation

• ​Why stressed kids can’t “just calm down” or think logically

• ​Brain-based tools to help your child regulate emotions and feel safe

• ​What to say (and what not to say) during meltdowns or shutdowns

• ​How to support your child without hovering or overcorrecting

​This will be an interactive, judgment-free space with reflection, live polls, and practical exercises.

​Leave with clarity, relief and tools you can actually use.

​Who it’s for

​Parents of elementary to high-school-aged kids who feel unhappy, stressed, anxious, or emotionally overwhelmed.
