Speaker Series sheds light on inner workings of teenagers

Emotional Teen

Ever try to get inside the mind of a teenager?

Dr. Ron Clavier has, and he will discuss teen behaviour during the Centre for Lifespan Development Research‘s Speaker Series Monday, Nov. 17.

Entitled Teen Brain, Teen Mind: A Neuro-Developmental Approach to Living and Working With Adolescents, Dr. Clavier argues that a clear understanding of the developing brain is the key to unlocking the age-old mysteries of why teens and pre-teens act the way they act and think the way they think.

Since 1982, Dr. Clavier has run a private practice in clinical psychology, basing it on his background as a neuroscientist.

His presentation will address topics of relevance to professionals in the health and education communities who work with teens and pre-teens.

Dr. Clavier will offer numerous coping tips and strategies designed to ease tensions and improve communications.

This is event is free and open to the public, but RSVP is required as space is limited.

For more information or to RSVP for the event, please contact Jayne Morrish or Allison Flynn-Bowman at lifespan@brocku.ca or call 905-688-5550 x4566
