Episode #693: Working With Challenging Boys, feat. J. Timothy Davis, Ph.D.
Manage episode 512176271 series 1389845
Today's guest, J. Timothy Davis, Ph.D. joins me to explore his work with boys who are often labeled as "challenging"—and why that label doesn't tell the whole story. Drawing on his clinical expertise and his experience as a volunteer firefighter, Tim shares how he blends multiple therapeutic approaches to connect with and support these boys.
We talk about the growing pressures boys face in elementary school—academic demands, reduced opportunities for physical activity, the influence of screens, and shifting cultural norms—and how those factors impact behavior and relationships. We wrap up with a look at his book, Challenging Boys, which offers practical strategies for both parents and clinicians.
Explore his book, Challenging Boys: A Proven Plan for Keeping Your Cool and Helping Your Son Thrive, for evidence-based strategies to support boys' emotional and behavioral development.
