Partnering is a compassionate behavioural change model developed by Suzanne Alderson to support her daughter through mental illness. At a time when connection is needed more than ever, you and your child are likely to struggle to find a common language. And without that, it is difficult to understand what your child may be feeling, why they may be reacting in a certain way and how best to support them.
Partnering is about you and how you can change your behaviour to help you, your child and your family make sense of this new and extraordinary time.
There are 3 stages to Partnering: Step Down, Stand Beside and Travel Together.
