Devereux changes lives – by unlocking
and
nurturing human potential for people living with emotional, behavioral or cognitive differences.
For many of us, when we hear the word “soundtrack,” we think about music. But there is a different kind of soundtrack – the voice in our head that we listen to on repeat – that can significantly impact our happiness, concentration and overall quality of life.

By being aware of the negative thoughts in our heads, we can better manage them. Devereux Center for Resilient Children Director Susan Damico offers strategies to help you shift your inner soundtrack.
