Building Resilience: A Compassionate Approach to Treating Emotional Adversity

October 14, 2023 Dr. Paul "Paulie" Gavoni Season 1 Episode 28

In this episode,  David Roth and I emphasize the critical need for the field of behavior analysis to delve deeper into the concept of resilience. While the concept of resilience is widely acknowledged, there's a gap in our understanding of it. It's our goal to ignite a conversation and inspire action on the pressing issue of defining and analyzing resilience. Today's discussion is driven by compassion and our personal experiences that have served as a catalyst to encourage this exploration.
