Neuro Family Law Conference

 

Our ability to think and reason diminishes when we experience strong emotions. Yet our separating clients are asked to
make important decisions when their ability to think may be diminished…Practitioners need to know about this.

This interactive half-day conference will give you tools to help your clients with this predicament.

The agenda will include sessions on:

*Brain 101 – what are brain patterns, the Fight and Flight response,  and the role of our frontal cortex
*Intervention and negotiation strategies with separating spouses
*Small Group Practice Skill
*The Jack Nimble Brain Challenge
