Supporting Challenging Behaviours – Understanding Children's Unmet Needs

Welcome to part 1 of 2 free online events for families on understanding children's unmet needs connected to challenging behaviours. Register now to secure your spot, as most events in 2025 sold out!

This free webinar is designed especially for parents and caregivers of children who experience big emotions, meltdowns, or difficulty keeping safe with themselves and/or others when upset. It’s particularly helpful for families of young children with developmental differences or identified neurodivergence, such as Autism or ADHD, though all families are welcome.

Hosted from Naarm/Melbourne, Australia, join psychologist Carolyne Jones to explore concepts and tools to help better understand what’s happening beneath your child’s behaviours that are challenging for them and/or your family and others.

What this session will cover:

• Defining 'challenging behaviour'
• Recognising when a child is outside their 'window of tolerance'
• Explore survival states when outside their 'window of tolerance', such as fight, flight, freeze, fawn
• Range of potential reasons underlying challenging behaviours - message being communicated
• Explore ways to collect and organise information to plan helpful strategies
• Helpful resources to explore for further information
