About this session
Meltdowns and shutdowns are two of the most exhausting — and most misunderstood — experiences in parenting outside-the-box kids. They're almost always a regulation story, not a behavior story. This support group, led by Lily Baiser, MS, OTR/L and Jill Gitten Aloia, PhD, ABPP-CN, is a space for parents to share what meltdowns and shutdowns actually look like in their home — what triggers them, what escalates them, what sometimes helps, and what definitely doesn't. Get clinical perspective on what the nervous system is doing in those moments, connect with parents who live the same reality, and leave with something concrete to try.

Jill Aloia
PhD, ABPP-CN
I'm a licensed, board-certified clinical neuropsychologist with 25 years of experience, but honestly, supporting outside-the-box children has never felt like "work" to me. As a pediatric neuropsychologist, I've focused on children with neurodevelopmental differences, including ADHD, since graduate school. My research interest in neurodevelopmental differences carried me through a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship at Brown University. View full profile

I'm a licensed pediatric occupational therapist, co-founder, and Chief Clinical Officer of Kinspire, and for nearly two decades, I've been driven by one question: why is it still so hard for families to get support that actually works? View full profile
