Paradigm Shift Program

Are you dreading the start to school with your PDA child or teen? 😬

You are not alone! 

During this free training, I explored seven steps to help you feel more confident and empowered with skills that can help you solve problems and get your child or teen the support and access to learning that they deserve and have a right to 💪.

Structure of the free mini training:

👉Tough love and radically accepting the constraints we can’t change in the moment.

👉Identifying decision points vs. strategies for advocacy

👉 Strategic communication with schools

👉Identify specific needs and solutions (one problem at a time)

👉 PLATO framework for making non-violent communication requests (Citation: Marshall Rosenberg, Non-Violent Communication: A Language of Compassion)

👉Collect data on response (e.g. Yes, No, but… or No) to inform decision making.

These are skills we apply, practice, and refine in the context of your real life and home in our signature Paradigm Shift Program (https://www.atpeaceparents.com/paradigm-shift-program)

In this episode I share how Polyvagal Theory - cutting edge understanding of how the human nervous system works - can help us parent our PDA children and teens. Specifically, I look at how it helps us answer the following paradoxical questions:

1 - Why do things seem to get worse after I dive in on accommodating?

2 - How can my child turn their responses on or off if the behaviors truly aren't under their conscious control?

3 - Similarly, how can equalizing be social in nature if not under their control?

4 - Why, after making so much progress with my PDA child, do I personally feel so awful in my own nervous system?

In this episode I share the lessons I learned THE HARD WAY about advocating for my PDA son. Because you are truly not alone if you're feeling angry and exhausted after trying to convince teachers, doctors, therapists, grandparents, even spouses what your child needs and why - I've worked with hundreds of families who have gone through this.

I share these lessons in the hope that it will short cut the process for you, so you can preserve some of your limited energy.

Interested in the two books I mention - Non-Violent Communication and Boundary Boss. You can find links to both on our resources page, and if you buy through those links a commission will go towards our scholarship program. www.atpeaceparents.com/resources

Parents often ask me how their three-year-old PDA child could possibly be masking before they've even started preschsool and seen much of how other kids behave. It's a great question, and one I asked many times as well.

In this episode I dig into the answer, according to Polyvagal Theory.

In this episode Dr. Alex Klein and I answer questions that families submitted. If you'd like to submit a question for one of our future conversations, here is where you can do so: https://www.atpeaceparents.com/submit-question-klein-ehrlich

Here's some of the questions we took on for this episode:

• How do you know if the behavior you are observing as a parent is from ADHD or PDA? What are the differences and similarities?
• Why are psychologists so resistant to recognizing PDA? (Asked as “What is wrong with Psychologists that they can’t see this as a neurotype!?!” 😊)
• Are psychologists helpful at all if they aren’t PDA themselves? Is it even worth trying to find a psychologist?
• What do you do if ABA is recommended by a doctor, but intuitively you don't think it is the right fit?

Does your child refuses to write or draw? In this episode I share my story of my son's avoidance of both and how supporting his nervous with PDA accommodations enabled him to come back to them over time.

The story also illustrates the general logic of supporting a child through and out of burnout.
