Supporting Families when Factors Interfere with Typical Social-Emotional Development

June 6th @ 12 pm EST

In Part II of this Talks on Tuesday series on social-emotional neurodevelopment, Ann-Bailey Lipsett will discuss factors that may disrupt attunement and negatively impact key neurodevelopmental processes, including prolonged NICU stays, un/under-supported parental mental health challenges, “high-needs” babies, and atypical development. She will then share strategies to facilitate attunement when the process has been disrupted or is at risk of disruption. Join us on this “deep dive” into attunement and gain effective strategies for supporting families who are experiencing factor(s) which may challenge the important process of attunement.
