Empowering Children & Adults
Like other courses, we focus on helping all adults better understand why
young people may struggle and the best strategies for supporting them.
Our approach also focuses on ways for you to empower the young person.
Children normally know when their responses are unhelpful. This isn’t big
news - they have often been told so regularly in their past. What they rarely
understand is the WHY.
Our approach provides
ways to help the children
understand their
own brain.
This puts them in a
better position to plan
and work on any
changes they want to make in how they respond to people and
situations.
