Scaffold Clinician Training

Sponsoring Organization: Scaffold: A Community of Support

Date: March 16th, 2026

Time: 9:30 – 11:30am eastern

Location: Virtual

Description:
Working with parents often feels heavier and more complex than working with kids. When practitioners feel anchored into how we understand behavior, we can ease that heaviness and support steadier parent work.

This training grounds practitioners in the relational neuroscience paradigm for understanding behavior and applies a nervous-system lens to guide conceptualization, treatment planning, and parent support. Participants explore how to help parents make sense of behavior, coach co-regulation without shame, and remain regulated and present in emotionally complex interactions.

Attention is given to caregiver dynamics that commonly increase practitioner overwhelm, including working with dysregulated or defensive parents and with caregivers who believe they are “doing everything right” while key regulatory supports are missing. Emphasis is placed on judgment, pacing, and role clarity rather than scripts or techniques, helping practitioners leave with a clear sense of how to think about their work and what they can reasonably offer families.
