Join us for a powerful and eye-opening evening as Dr. Alec Goldstein draws on years of experience working with children exhibiting extreme aggression, suicidality, and homicidality. He will provide practical, compassionate strategies for understanding and managing dangerous behavior in children and adolescents.

Learn how crises develop, what warning signs to look for, and how to respond safely and effectively when behavior escalates. Dr. Goldstein will also explore how families, schools, and professionals can work together to reduce risk and build healthier, more resilient patterns of behavior.

He specializes in the assessment and treatment of youth with severe behavioral and emotional disorders and consults with schools and community agencies on evidence-based approaches to support complex mental health needs.
