Connecting With You

Join us as MBS Wellness hosts a parent centered group based on the work of Russell Barkely, PhD. Dr. Barkley is a neuropsychologist and internationally recognized expert in ADHD/ADD. Dr. Barkely authored the book Your Defiant Child and Defiant Children: A Clinician’s Manual for Assessment and Parent Training, which this group is based on. This group focuses on children and youth between ages 4-12.

This group will be offered in person.

The material presented is in the form of psycho-education and out of group practice work. The goals of this group are:

1. To focus on and address the non-compliant behavior of the child, rather than labeling the child as “defiant or bad”

2. Assist the family in improving quality interactions while increasing understanding of each other.
