I’ll be speaking at an in-person workshop in NYC:

This workshop is designed for educators, caregivers, and professionals seeking a clear, practical understanding of how emotions work—and how emotional regulation differs across common disorders. We’ll focus on emotional awareness, self-management, mindfulness, and resilience, with strategies that can be used immediately.

I’ll be joined by Dr. Roberto Olivardia and Dr. Chris Willard.
