Publisher's Synopsis
Preemptive Behavior Therapy is a low-impact behavior modification program designed to help children self-regulate their behavior without resorting to the use of traditional punishments, corrections or medications. Redirecting negative thought processes before associated bad behavior occurs is the foundation of Preemptive Behavior Therapy. This softer but more effective approach is based on ancient principles of animal behavior observation, human body language recognition and deliberate positioning, and using the concept of Redirections over Corrections. Developed by Debbie Cowan-Hackett - a veteran child caseworker and certified animal communicator, and Russ Hudson - who lived in numerous homes for troubled kids, Preemptive Behavior Therapy is designed specially for high risk and troubled children and teens, but will work with any child.
