Publisher's Summary

A bold new way to help anyone change

Why is it so hard to change problem behavior - in our kids, our colleagues, and even ourselves? Conventional methods often backfire, creating a downward spiral of resentment and frustration, and a missed opportunity for growth. What if the thinking behind these old methods is wrong? What if people don’t misbehave because they want to, but because they lack the skills to do better? Or as renowned psychologist J. Stuart Ablon asks, what if changing problem behavior is a matter of skill, not will?

Based on more than 25 years of clinical work with juvenile offenders as well training parents, teachers, counselors, and law enforcement, and supported by research in neuroscience, Changeable presents a radical new way of thinking about challenging and unwanted behavior - Collaborative Problem Solving - that builds empathy, helps others reach their full potential, and most of all really works.

With illuminating scientific evidence, remarkable success stories, and actionable insights, Changeable gives parents, teachers, CEOs, and anyone interested in learning about why we behave the way we do a roadmap for helping people grow.

*Includes a bonus PDF with charts and graphs.

Critic Reviews

“Reaching our full potential requires opening ourselves up to change - even when it’s uncomfortable and scary, or seems impossible. The insights in this engaging book shed light on the real obstacles to change, and how we can overcome them - in ourselves and others. An empowering read.” (Susan David, PhD, best-selling author of Emotional Agility)

Changeable is a great book. Dr. Ablon addresses the most challenging aspect of human interaction - how to engage with another person to effectively help them change. This is the key task of a parent, coach, teacher, supervisor, therapist - just about any human-to-human interaction involves change. The clear and compelling way that Dr. Ablon outlines the Collaborative Problem Solving process will be a revelation. Using the principles outlined in Changeable will shift the way you understand and interact with others - and the impact may just change your life.” (Bruce D. Perry, MD, PhD, Senior Fellow, The ChildTrauma Academy, and best-selling author of The Boy Who Was Raised as a Dog)

“Each of us has the potential to learn new skills, regardless of how we’ve been labeled or judged by others. In this empowering book, Stuart Ablon shows how helping others work past their struggles to learn and grow can yield powerful results.” (Scott Barry Kaufman, PhD, author of Twice Exceptional and Ungifted, and co-author of Wired to Create)
