De-escalation
Nov 06, 2022 Season 3 Episode 7
Mike Rubio and Dan Lowery

What goes up must come down--after a two-part series on the idea of an 'escalation cycle,,' Dan and Mike could only follow up with a discussion on de-escalation. In this follow-up episode, Dan and Mike continue to utilize the notion of 'crisis' or 'assaultive' behavior and its management as a means to better understand and elucidate strategies for addressing day-to-day challenging behavior. While the behavior being emitted by the client or child is often the focus of intervention, perhaps a more important variable is the behaviors or stimuli active around that person and in their environment. Dan and Mike work to explain the key aspects of the de-escalation range of the full cycle and more importantly discuss what not to do as well as what to enact as a parent or professional working to help an individual come back down to baseline.

Sit back, stay observant, acknowledge, empathize and ALWAYS analyze responsibly.
