Kids Do Well if They Can! It’s About Skill not Will

We can’t say it’s business as usual when thousands of kids are waiting for care. What was already a crisis has been magnified by the COVID pandemic.  More kids than ever are struggling with massive developmental gaps, and with trauma, too—taking the need for services to an extraordinary new level.

Novel solutions are required. Yes, we need more clinicians but this isn’t the only answer—we can’t just hire our way out of this unprecedented demand. We need to think differently about how we deliver care.

Dr. Stuart Ablon presents a paradigm shift in understanding why so many kids are struggling that combines neuroscience, compassion and common sense. This paradigm shift is at the heart of Dr. Ablon’s work and why Malcolm Gladwell, Adam Grant, Dan Pink and Susan Cain hand-picked his latest book, Changeable, for their Next Big Idea Club. Dr. Ablon’s evidence-based approach, Collaborative Problem Solving, provides not only a guiding philosophy but actionable tools that have been shown to reduce conflict and stress while improving relationships and helping youth build the skills they need to succeed
