Join Jon Barberio, a therapist specializing in trauma, addiction, and family systems, as he breaks down executive functioning in a way that connects directly to real-life experiences with children. This session focuses on how regulation, connection, and a child’s environment impact their ability to think, manage emotions, and follow through. Participants will examine behavior as communication and how adult responses can either escalate or de-escalate situations. You’ll leave with practical strategies to stay grounded, build stronger relationships, and better support children during challenging moments.

What will I learn?

Objectives

Participation

 Audience

   Executive Function as “Whole Brain Online”: Understanding that students can only think, plan, and regulate behavior when their lower-level needs like safety and physiological regulation are met.
   Behavior Is Communication: Recognizing that student behavior reflects underlying needs, stress, or disconnection rather than simply defiance or noncompliance.
   Adult Regulation Drives Student Outcomes: Acknowledging that adult tone, presence, and emotional regulation directly influence whether situations escalate or de-escalate.
   Connection Before Correction: Accepting that students must feel connected and regulated before they are able to learn, process feedback, or change behavior.
   Safe, Seen, Soothed, Secure: Creating environments where students feel safe, understood, supported, and secure in order to build long-term regulation and learning capacity.

Who am I learning from?

Jonathon Barberio, MA, LPC

Jon Barberio works with clients to explore their stories and the narratives others have written for them that they no longer wish to own while helping change unhealthy and untrue thoughts and beliefs that lead to negative experiences. He loves teaching families to be curious about the systems they are a part of and how they each affect each other because no one person is “the problem.” Outside of his professional work, he loves reading fiction, playing any competitive sport, playing board games, having thought-provoking conversations by a fire, and would own way too many project cars if he could. Jonathon is a Licensed Professional Counselor with his Bachelors in Psychology and Theology, Masters in Clinical Counseling, and has certifications in rational emotive behavioral therapy, cognitive process therapy, and behavioral therapy for those struggling with challenging experiences.
