Becoming a Behavior Detective: Understanding the “Why” Behind Behavior
With Dr. Jessica Block & Dr. Samantha Nish
Thursday, May 28th, 12:00-1:00pm, Virtual
Behavior often gets labeled as the problem, but what if it’s actually a clue? In this collaborative presentation, Dr. Jessica Block, licensed pediatric neuropsychologist, and Dr. Samantha Nish, licensed clinical psychologist, explain how to look beneath the surface of behavioral challenges to uncover what they’re really communicating. Dr. Block will explore the neurological underpinnings of behavioral dysregulation, helping you understand how brain-based differences can drive what we see on the outside. Building on this foundation, Dr. Nish will offer practical strategies for responding to behavior through a parenting and environmental lens. Together, this session will shift your perspective from reacting to behavior to decoding it so you can respond with greater clarity, compassion, and effectiveness.
