WHO IT’S FOR

Mental health clinicians (social workers, psychologists, counselors, and more) and pediatric primary care clinicians.

This online-only course offers the opportunity to learn on your own time, at your own pace, providing an overview of disruptive behavior disorders and The REACH Institute’s Disruptive Behavior Symptoms Intervention, a cognitive-behavioral, manualized intervention.

Disruptive behavior problems are among the most common reasons children are referred for mental health treatment. This one-hour class covers risk and protective factors associated with disruptive behavior disorders, assessing for disruptive behavior disorders, and intervention strategies, both parent- and child-focused.
