Emotional Budgeting with Paul Sambataro

This week, on The Parents' Solution, I had an educational conversation with Paul Sambataro. Paul is a retired school psychologist who holds a doctorate in neurobehavioural psychology. He is the author of the books Emotional Budgeting Workbook and The Narrative Cognitive Development. Paul is currently completing other written works entitled The Bi-Polar War and The Autism Revolution. He has also been working in a clinic with children who have severe disabilities.

As a school psychologist, Sambataro administered academic and cognitive assessments on students. Paul has plenty of experience in dealing with children's maladaptive behaviours along with a host of teachers, parents and other professionals, as the group tries to reach solutions that are in the best interest of the child.

Paul made a simple, but powerful statement, "When a child acts out, the child is feeling pain." It is important for parents to keep this in mind when dealing with the accompanying behaviours. By working at emotional budgeting (the practice of taking stock of the facts, such as feelings and where they are coming from), the child can develop files which helps the child sort through what they are feeling. This in turn helps the child become more successful in their daily life.

Sambataro encourages parents to bring the child on board in the solution-finding process. When a parent is working with the child, this lowers the child's anxiety. It is crucial that parents do not give away their authority as support for the child, especially young children as the child is looking to the parent for stability.

Be sure to tune in to this informative podcast episode, as Paul shares more statistically proven advice on how to help children who are acting out as a result of pain. The Houston Behavioral Health Institute has developed and published an Online Course for The Emotional Budgeting Workbook. The course has an additional 100 pages of step-by-step detailed guide to The Emotional Budgeting Workbook. The first chapter can be previewed for free to gain greater insight to the program.

A note from Paul himself:

HBHI is developing online courses (Adult, and 17 and under) for The Emotional Budgeting Workbook providing a page by page explanation and instruction with either hard or digital workbook copy. We expect to have this course available to the public within 6 months with available additional help when requested.

We expect significantly greater positive outcomes for all individuals who complete the course and workbook as we have with our previous clients.
