For Parents of Kids with Big, Baffling Behaviors

Stop playing behavior whack-a-mole with your child’s most baffling behaviors

by addressing the real problem.

The Being With™: A Course for Parents of Kids with Big, Baffling Behaviors is a 12-week holistic, and immersive program based on the science of being relationally, socially and behaviorally human. My certification as a Being With™: Course Facilitator represents the culmination of 12-months of intensive, specialized and focused training as a member of the inaugural cohort of the program and parent course created by Robyn Gobbel, MSW.

This course will make your child’s behavior make sense… even the ones that don’t.  You’ll become equipped with interventions, tools, and techniques that actually work!

And in this no-shame, no-blame approach to parenting, you’ll finally understand why knowing is only half the battle.

The course is strategically designed so you don’t just LEARN a bunch of parenting tools and techniques. By the end, you’ll actually be able to DO the powerful techniques you’ll learn.

This game-changing course will benefit ALL PARENTS, but is designed for parents of kids or teens with vulnerable nervous systems & baffling behaviors.

This includes (but is not limited to):

  • children with a history of trauma and toxic stress (including foster care and adoption)

  • children who are neurodivergent, (including children with brain-wiring differences due to autism, ADHD, giftedness, sensory processing, or neuroimmune disorders

  • children with emotional and behavioral regulation challenges that manifest in difficulties at home and/or at school

  • children who exhibit the following behaviors including hitting, verbal aggression, tantrums, avoidance, shutdown, withdrawal, defiance, difficulty with transitions, anxiety, negative thoughts towards self, perfectionism, and difficulty connecting with peers and/or adults in their daily life

You might not know why your child has a vulnerable nervous system, and that’s OK… 

This course is for you, too. 

The 3 Foundational Tenets of Being With™

Core Tenet #1:

Behavior is just a clue.

It’s what we see on the outside that gives us some information about what might be happening on the inside.

Core Tenet #2:

We all need connection to survive. 

If your child is behaving in a way that makes us not want to be connected to them, we can pause and ask “What’s up with that?”

Core Tenet #3:

Regulated, connected kids who feel safe behave well. 

To change children’s behaviors, we will look for ways to increase regulation, connection, and felt-safety.  

Overview of the Course

  • SECTION 1 - How to Become the Expert of Your Child's Behaviors

    Using the science of being relationally, socially, and behaviorally human, this section will demystify your child’s most baffling behaviors.  You’ll change how to see and interpret your child’s behavior, and that change will become the most powerful tool in your parenting toolbox.

  • SECTION 2 - Now Let's "Fix" Those Behaviors

    Your parenting toolbox will be stuffed with brain, body, and sensory strategies that actually work. These techniques will strengthen your child’s nervous system and decrease baffling behaviors.  Better yet, by the end of this section, you’ll know what interventions to use when.    

  • SECTION 3 - Why Knowing Isn't Even Half the Battle

    You aren’t a bad parent, so what happens between learning new parenting skills and actually using those new parenting skills?  Section 3 will grow your tolerance for baffling behaviors, so you can parent the way that you want to.
