Why Does My Kid React So Explosively? w/ Kim Hopkins

Описание: Are you a parent who too often struggles with your child's behavior? Are you looking for guidance?

On today’s podcast we will review a book called “The Explosive Child” by Dr Ross Greene. This book gives an optimistic perspective on behaviorally challenging children, and it also offers a step by step approach to help parents with kids who tend to be easily frustrated and inflexible. Today's podcast is joined by Kim Hopkins, who works alongside the book’s author, Dr Greene. Kim is a licensed clinical social worker, and she specializes in using this step by step approach, which they call “CPS”.

Ms. Hopkins is an independently licensed clinical social worker who has specialized in working with behaviorally challenging kids for more than 25 years. She has managed the clinical departments of two organizations serving youth and families in residential facilities, foster homes, therapeutic day schools, and homeless shelters. She has been a Collaborative & Proactive Solutions (CPS) Trainer since 2007 helping schools, residentials, hospitals, and parents to successfully implement the CPS Model. Ms. Hopkins is also the Director of Outreach & Communication for Dr. Ross Greene’s non-profit, Lives in the Balance.
