SUMMARY:Transracial Parenting Workshop with Isaac Etter
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a two-part workshop on Transracial Parenting on June 30\, 2026 from 10AM-1:30PM. \nSession 1: The Understanding and Supporting Transracial Adoptees and Fosterees with Isaac Etter This workshop covers the fundamentals needed to be a great transracial adoptive parent. This presentation will cover Isaac Etter’s transracial adoption experience\, understanding bias\, racial identity development for adoptees\, and Isaac’s practical guide to transracial adoption. You will laugh and learn from Isaac’s story of growing up as a Black boy in a white family. They will get a deeper understanding of bias and how to address bias in themselves\, how to support their child’s racial identity development\, and a practical guide of what to do and conversations to have in every age group. \nSession 2: Protective Styling Done Right: Caring for Your Black Child’s Hair with Confidence with Terria Roushun This workshop is designed to equip adoptive and foster parents\, especially non-Black parents raising Black children\, with a clear\, compassionate\, and culturally grounded understanding of protective styling. You’ll learn the true purpose of protective styles\, how to maintain those styles week to week\, and how to spot and avoid the most common mistakes parents make. From choosing styles that support growth to understanding how protective styling can build confidence and emotional connection\, this session is packed with insights you won’t find on YouTube.

SUMMARY:Robyn Gobbel Working with Families of Dysregulated Kids
DESCRIPTION:Research in human development and behavioral neuroscience help us make sense of even the most baffling behaviors in children and parents. Understanding what behavior really is begins the roadmap for treatment planning. Therapists (and parents) can stop playing behavior whack-a-mole and experience better client outcomes by shifting the focus away from behavior and toward the brain and autonomic nervous system. In this training\, attendees will explore the theory of relational neuroscience as a way to conceptualize behavior disorders in children. Attendees will learn strategies they can immediately implement when working with stressed and overwhelmed parents\, and will feel equipped to support parents of kids with behavior disorders. Learning Objectives:\n\nParticipants will:\n● Describe how relational neuroscience conceptualizes mental health symptoms and DSM diagnoses\n● Describe the 2 branches of the autonomic nervous system and how they relate to behavioral symptoms in both children and adults\n● Describe how a sensitized stress response system contributes to behavioral symptoms in children\n● Describe why coherence is an important treatment intervention\n● Identify a six-step process to working with challenging & resistant parents using the science of safety and connection\n● Describe parenting strategies that can decrease challenging behavior by increasing felt safety\, regulation\, and connection *Please note: You must attend all sessions to receive CEs!\n\n\n\nRemaining dates & time (for this 4 part series)\n\n\n\n\n\nJul 7\, 2026 11:00 AM\nAug 4\, 2026 11:00 AM
