Episode 3: Anxiety

Anxiety is very common in people with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASDs) and other developmental disabilities. There are many reasons why it can happen, and there are many challenges to living with it every day. In this episode we talk about various aspects of anxiety, and how it can also impact caregivers.

Episode 1: First Steps with Behaviors (Neurobehavior Model)

In this episode, we meet Jill Snell, our new co-host! 

The neurobehavior model of challenging behavior is a new way to interpret behaviors. In this episode, Jill talks about how shifting her thinking has helped her family understand behaviors. 

Please read Diane Malbin's book, "Trying Differently Rather Than Harder"! You can find out more about the neurobehavioral model at her website, www.fascets.org. A list of Fascets workshops can be found here.
