The difficult behaviors we typically see in adolescents with ODD, trauma, and attachment issues are just the top of the iceberg. As caregivers, we must go under the surface to uncover the most crucial therapeutic aim for all individuals: the neuroception of safety as shown by physiological state control.

Drs. Porges and Delahooke will show you how Polyvagal Theory may help us “see inside” the neural systems of dysregulated persons and parents. You’ll discover how to integrate neuroscience into clinical practice and the best tactics for regulating the child’s nervous system to generate a state of tranquility and felt safety, which will lead to enhanced communication, relational satisfaction, and joy!

Stephen W. Porges, Ph.D., is an Indiana University Distinguished University Scientist and the founding director of the Traumatic Stress Research Consortium. He is a Psychiatry Professor at the University of North Carolina and an Emeritus Professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago and the University of Maryland. He has previously served as president of the Society for Psychophysiological Research and the Federation of Associations in Behavioral and Brain Sciences, and he is a past National Institute of Mental Health Research Scientist Development Award winner. He has over 300 peer-reviewed articles in anesthesiology, biomedical engineering, critical care medicine, ergonomics, exercise physiology, gerontology, neurology, neuroscience, obstetrics, pediatrics, psychiatry, psychology, psychometrics, space medicine, and drug misuse. He created the Polyvagal Theory in 1994, which ties the evolution of the mammalian autonomic nervous system to social behavior and highlights the role of physiological condition in the presentation of behavioral issues and mental diseases. The hypothesis is leading to novel therapies based on new insights into the processes that mediate symptoms in a variety of behavioral, mental, and physical illnesses. The Polyvagal Theory: Neurophysiological Foundations of Emotions, Attachment, Communication, and Self-Regulation (Norton, 2011), The Pocket Guide to the Polyvagal Theory: The Transformative Power of Feeling Safe (Norton, 2017), and Clinical Applications of the Polyvagal Theory: The Emergence of Polyvagal-Informed Therapies (Norton, 2017) are his books (Norton, 2018). He is the author of the Safe and Sound ProtocolTM, a music-based intervention used by over 1400 therapists to increase spontaneous social interaction, hearing sensitivities, language processing, and state management.
