Its approach is built on trust, autonomy, and parent empowerment: consultations are tailored to each child and family, with an emphasis on creating a safe space for parents to learn practical skills. The team encourages children’s independence in everyday activities and gives parents tools and strategies to communicate effectively and guide their children through difficult moments.
