Dr. Dan Siegel: The Power and Purpose of the Adolescent Brain
Internationally acclaimed author and UCLA psychiatrist, Dr. Daniel Siegel, will share the exciting neuroscience behind the heightened social, emotional and creative energy that drives adolescent behavior. Dispelling myths of raging hormones and immaturity, he explains how crucial changes in the brain prepare us to thrive as interdependent adults. Dr. Siegel teaches us how to harness these changes to help our adolescents navigate a happy, stable transition to adulthood. He offers strategies to enhance self-awareness, support family connections and reduce vulnerability to risks. Whether you are in the midst of navigating the teenage years or preparing for the next chapter in the life of you and your elementary or middle school child, this evening will be both eye opening and deeply engaging! Dr. Siegel's bestselling books include "Brainstorm: The Power and Purpose of the Teenage Brain", "The Whole-Brain Child", "Mindsight" and his newly released "Mind: A Journey to the Heart of Being Human".
