Course created by Robyn Gobbel / Taught by Angi Soulier, Parent Coach

being with parent course bellingham wa angi soulier angie soulierStop playing behavior whack-a-mole with your child’s most baffling behaviors by finally addressing the real problem!  This 10-week course will teach you what behavior really is, and how to change it. Being With™: A Course for Parents of Kids with Big, Baffling Behaviors is based on the science of being relationally, socially, and behaviorally human.  This course will make your child’s behavior make sense- even the ones that don’t.  You’ll become equipped with interventions, tools, and techniques- that actually work! And in this no-shame, no blame approach to parenting, you’ll finally understand why knowing is only half the battle. The course is strategically designed so you don’t just learn a bunch of parenting tools and techniques. By the end, you’ll actually be able to do the powerful techniques you’ll learn.

This course will benefit all parents but is especially offered for parents of kids with vulnerable nervous systems and baffling behaviors. This includes children with a history of trauma and toxic stress (including foster care and adoption), as well as children who are neurodivergent, gifted, have sensory processing differences, or neuroimmune disorders.  You might not know why your child has a vulnerable nervous system, and that’s OK.  This course is for you, too.

Three Core Tenets.

To change children’s behaviors, we will look for ways to increase regulation, connection, and felt-safety.

Behavior

Behavior is just a clue. It’s what we see on the outside that gives us some information about what might be happening on the inside.

Connection

We all need connection to survive. If your child is behaving in a way that makes us not want to be connected to them, we can pause and ask “What’s up with that?”

Safety

Regulated, connected kids, who feel safe, behave well.

Highlights of the Course.

Become the Expert in Your Child’s Behavior

Using the science of being relationally, socially, and behaviorally human, this section will demystify the most baffling behaviors.  You’ll change how to see and interpret your child’s behavior.  That change will become the most powerful tool in your parenting toolbox.


Now, Let’s “Fix” Those Behaviors

Your parenting toolbox will be stuffed with brain, body, and sensory strategies that actually work. These techniques will strengthen your child’s nervous system and decrease baffling behaviors. Better yet, by the end of this section you’ll know what interventions to use when.
