Join us and learn how to effectively manage tantrums.

In this workshop Dr. Rene will cover the basics of tantrums:

  • why children tantrum
  • how to prevent tantrums
  • ways to manage once they start

Since the main factor in reducing tantrums is to prevent them in the first place, Dr. Rene will explore in detail the various ways to prevent tantrums - including how to chart the behavior, the benefits of knowing triggers and cue behaviors and teaching about emotions and ways to calm.  The important aspects of parents' response during and after tantrums and the impact of intermittent reinforcement is covered in detail - helping parents understand how their behavior may either encourage to help reduce tantrums in the future. We will also cover ways to best lessen whining and backtalk.
