Understanding the psychology of learning and behaviour in Duchenne muscular dystrophy

Understanding the psychology of learning and behaviour in Duchenne muscular dystrophy

2 February 2021 by Lynnette

The better you understand your child or young person, the more equipped you are to help them manage their behaviour. 

I found the webinar so interesting and for me was a complete game changer in how I deal with A, I feel he is going to benefit so much more from my new found understanding of how he processes things and what causes him to behave the way he does and why he reacts in a particular way.

Duchenne Mum

We welcomed Dr. Natalie P. Truba PhD, Clinical Psychologist in Columbus, Ohio who shared her passion, knowledge and experience in the online session. Duchenne families and education professionals learned about why children or young people with Duchenne may behave in a particular way. 

I realise that I am not alone in experiencing certain behaviours and knowing the scientific reason for them makes it easier to deal with them. 

Duchenne Parent

Part 1

Part 2

As the teacher of a child living with Duchenne it was extremely interesting and will give me ideas of ways forward to having discussions with his parents and to making life more appropriate to his needs in school.

Teacher
