HBCC Makes a Difference
Trainings & Coaching
It can feel like the ones who are seemingly capable that exhibit behavioral challenges are giving parents & teachers a hard time on purpose. This can lead to frayed relationships, defiance, school refusal, shame and blame.
At HBCC we help parents, teachers & service providers gain insights into the limitations of motivational approaches as solutions to challenging behaviors.
HBCC trainings and coaching give actionable strategies through proven evidence-based steps so adults can effect real change from the chronic adult/child power struggles.
Join one of our upcoming trainings to help those with challenging behaviors become their most functional, fulfilled, and authentic selves with proven steps on how to:
- build resilience and emotional balance
- advocate for a learning environment where they can thrive
- help build friendships that feel right
- strengthen their executive function for daily successes
- support their unique journey & thrive
The truth is "kids do well if they can" and "compliance is about skill not will"
Collaborative Problem Solving®(CPS) is the foundation of HBCC that helps adults look at the unsolved problems BEHIND the behavior, instead of trying to extinguish and control the behavior itself.
Collaborative Problem Solving®(CPS) is owned and developed by Think:Kids (www.thinkkids.org), a program based in the Department of Psychiatry at Massachusetts General Hospital(MGH) in Boston, MA. Those CPS Certified receive ongoing supervision from T:K and are independent of MGH.
Helping the Behaviorally Challenging Child (HBCC) is the only non-profit in SoCal offering trainings and support in-person that is focused to help adults address challenging behavior through a Collaborative Problem Solving®(CPS) lens. This has proven to build skills and reduce challenging behaviors and help everyone thrive.
