I believe in…

• Helping the whole family - if the parents don’t feel regulated and supported, neither will their child(ren)

• Working collaboratively with families and other caregivers, and as a problem solving team

• Empowering the adults in a child’s life to implement changes in every day interactions

• Using evidence-based strategies, as well as a flexible approach, to tailor treatment to individual needs

• Using FUN, creative, play-based, developmentally appropriate techniques

• Looking beyond observable behaviour to better understand feelings and motivations

• Getting to know a child as an individual instead of using a formulaic approach

• Using a skills based approach - helping build parenting skills, coping skills, social skills, and self-awareness

• Helping create optimal environments in which a child can grow, learn, and thrive
