Mona Delahooke – författare

FULLY UPDATED, A NEW EDITION OF THE BESTSELLING PARADIGM SHIFT FOR CAREGIVERS THAT WILL REVOLUTIONIZE THE WAY YOU APPROACH, TREAT OR PARENT A CHILD WITH CHALLENGING OR EXPLOSIVE BEHAVIOURS.When you are confronted with a child who is troubled, disruptive, oppositional, defiant or angry - whether you are a parent or a teacher - it can be difficult to know the best way to support them. Traditional methods of 'shaping' a child's behaviour can often be at best ineffective, at worst distressing, for child and adult alike.Drawing on 30 years of experience, internationally known paediatric psychologist Dr Mona Delahooke describes these troubled behaviours as the 'tip of the iceberg', important signals that point to deeper, individual differences in the child that we need to understand and address before we can resolve behavioural challenges. Using the very latest neuroscientific research Beyond Behaviours makes the case that many children who can't seem to behave simply don't have the developmental capacity to do so - yet. Fully updated, this new edition features:- Neuroscience-based strategies to address the root causes of behaviors-Accessible worksheets, charts and handouts to promote resilience and build satisfying, secure relationships-A new chapter with answers to common questions from the Beyond Behaviours communityDesigned to support children diagnosed with:-Conduct disorder-Oppositional defiant disorder (ODD)-Disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD)-Reactive attachment disorder (RAD)-Sensory processing disorder (SPD)-Anxiety and depressionAs well as:-Autistic children and teensAnd those experiencing:-Developmental or learning differences-Aggressive, confusing, or unpredictable behaviors-Tantrums and meltdowns-Disconnection or shutdown-Trauma, toxic stress, or adverse childhood experiencesAccessible, practical, warmly supportive and steeped in research and clinical expertise, Beyond Behaviours offers a break-through book which guides us - parents and caregivers alike - to the realisation that the most important tool in our toolkit is always our connection with the child standing in front of us.

A PARADIGM SHIFT FOR CAREGIVERS THAT WILL REVOLUTIONIZE THE WAY YOU APPROACH, TREAT OR PARENT A CHILD WITH CHALLENGING OR EXPLOSIVE BEHAVIOURS. When you are confronted with a child who is troubled, disruptive, oppositional, defiant or angry - whether you are a parent or a teacher - it can be difficult to know the best way to support them. Traditional methods of 'shaping' a child's behaviour can often be at best ineffective, at worst distressing, for child and adult alike.Drawing on 30 years of experience, internationally known paediatric psychologist Dr Mona Delahooke describes these troubled behaviours as the 'tip of the iceberg', important signals that point to deeper, individual differences in the child that we need to understand and address before we can resolve behavioural challenges. Using the very latest neuroscientific research Beyond Behaviours makes the case that many children who can't seem to behave simply don't have the developmental capacity to do so - yet. This book uses neuroscientific findings to help you deconstruct behaviour challenges, and to discover their cause and triggers for your child. It will show you how to apply this knowledge across a variety of behaviour spectrums, from children diagnosed with autism or other forms of neurodiversity, to those who might have been exposed to toxic stress or trauma during their early years. There are practical strategies to implement at every stage, backed up by impactful worksheets and charts, with a strong emphasis not on 'managing' behaviour, but instead on helping children and families build positive experiences to counteract the stress and pressure felt by everybody when you're working, or living, with a child who has behavioural challenges. Accessible, practical, warmly supportive and steeped in research and clinical expertise, Beyond Behaviours offers a break-through book which guides us - parents and caregivers alike - to the realisation that the most important tool in our toolkit is always our connection with the child standing in front of us.

Using Brain Science and Compassion to Understand and Solve Childrens Behavioural Challenges. A groundbreaking new approach to understanding and treating children with disruptive, troubled or challenging behaviours.

'I will be recommending this book to every parent' Dr Laura Markham'I adore this book!' Dr Tina Payne BrysonOver her decades as a clinical psychologist, Dr Mona Delahooke has helped countless distraught parents who struggle to manage their children's challenging behaviours. These families are understandably focused on correcting or improving a child's lack of compliance, emotional outbursts, tantrums and other 'out of control' behaviour. But behaviour, no matter how challenging, is not the problem but a symptom; a clue about what is happening in a child's unique physiological makeup.In Brain-Body Parenting, Dr Delahooke offers a radical new approach to parenting based on an approach that considers the essential role of the entire nervous system, which produces children's feelings and behaviours.When we begin to understand the biology beneath the behaviour, suggests Dr Delahooke, we give our children the resources they need to grow and thrive, and we give ourselves the gift of a happier, more connected relationship with them. Brain-Body Parenting empowers parents with tools to help their children develop self-regulation skills, while also encouraging parental self-care. The result is a deeper understanding of your child, encouraging calmer behaviour, more harmonious family dynamics, and increased resilience.

Es comprensible que las familias busquen corregir los arrebatos emocionales, la desobediencia o las rabietas de los niños. Sin embargo, la doctora Delahooke propone un cambio radical de perspectiva: el comportamiento no es el problema sino el síntoma; una pista sobre lo que está sucediendo en la estructura fisiológica del niño.Neurociencia para padres ofrece un enfoque nuevo para la crianza basado tanto en la larga experiencia clínica de la doctora Delahooke como en las investigaciones más recientes en neurociencia y psicología infantil. En lugar del clásico enfoque centrado en el cerebro, nos invita a considerar el papel esencial de todo el sistema nervioso, generador de los sentimientos y los comportamientos de los niños.Si entendemos la biología subyacente al comportamiento, podremos dar a nuestros hijos los recursos que necesitan para crecer y prosperar, y construiremos una relación más feliz y conectada con ellos y una dinámica familiar más armoniosa.
