Shapiro, Ph.D. is the company’s president and founder.Only a handful of child psychologists have changed the way that parents raise their children, and Dr. Lawrence E. Shapiro is among this elite group. Best known for his writing and lectures on emotional intelligence, his book How to Raise A Child with a High EQ: A Parents’ Guide to Emotional Intelligence has been translated into over 26 languages. In his books and his lectures, Dr. Shapiro shows parents how in just 10 minutes a day, they can raise their child’s “EQ” stimulating their social and emotional and moral development. His methods have also been shown to help prevent common problems of children and adolescence, including anxiety disorders, anger control problems, depression, and more.
Dr. Shapiro’s techniques are all based in the natural language of play—games, stories, and other play techniques--making them easy for parents and fun for kids. His techniques are continually profiled in the media, including: The Weekend Today Show, CNN, National Public Radio, Parents Magazine, The Geraldo Show, the Boston Globe, People Magazine, and many more.
It’s Dr. Shapiro’s clear way of writing and speaking that has impressed so many parents throughout the world. He has trained over 10,000 therapists on his techniques, and countless parents.
His productivity has also been remarkable. Dr. Shapiro has written more than 30 books, including storybooks, workbooks, professional books and parenting books. And he has invented over 100 therapeutic games including board games, card games, and more. In 2007 he teamed up with the Berenstain Bears to develop educational kits to help children with their behavior.
Few subjects that involve children escape Dr. Shapiro’s attention. He has written books about babies (The Baby Emergency Handbook, the Idiot’s Guide to Baby Brain Game), on behavioral issues of young children (Learning to Listen, Learning to Care, I’m Not Bad, I’m Just Mad), on communicating with children (The Secret Language of Children), on self-injury in teens (Stopping the Pain) and on the social development of children (Let’s Be Friends). His newsletters, EQ Kids and the Informed Parents, are eagerly read by thousands of people across the country and around the world.
Dr. Shapiro always promotes practical solutions to the problems of children and their parents. He also owns CounselingStore.com, a site that features products for professionals who work with children.Contact Us
