Children with problematic behaviors do not have sufficient internal strength to tolerate the pain and anxiety of disturbing emotional states. In this meeting we will discuss the helpfulness of being curious about the child’s behavior.

He has published the Manual for Regulation-Focused Psychotherapy for Children with Externalizing Behaviors (RFP-C): A Psychodynamic Approach, co-authored with Timothy Rice and with Tracy Prout. A clinical trial using the manual has been underway at Yeshiva University’s School-Clinical Child Psychology Program at Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology, with Tracy Prout as Principal Investigator.
