Therapists begin a partnership on t heir first visit with a n ew family, whatever the a age.
This partnership is honed through asking the right questions, listening for ‘I can do this’,
and creating doable strategies together.

Solutions will integrate the relevant kinesiological thinking to select movements that can be part of a families’ typical day. Anticipatory guidance will illustrate these practical strategies. The participants will particularly enjoy the family stories presenting powerful and unique perspectives on successful partnerships over 20 years and longer. This two day course will offer participants lectures, workshop ideas and video cases to actively select treatment
objectives and integrate strategies across multiple environments.

Course objectives: Upon completion of this course, the participant will be able to
explain each of the following ten steps and apply these principles in their everyday
work.

1. That first visit sets the stage, interview, time to build rapport: case stories
2. Listen, listen, listen: case stories
3. The red circle of coaching! Three steps
4. Share your thoughts: the ‘ teacher role’
5. Feedback: ‘show me’ and the use of video
6. Keep the solutions simple: how understanding kinesiological development over time
assists choice selection
7. Pace: Don’t wear people out…a lifetime is a long time
8. Team: Family as central in transdisciplinary models of service delivery
9. Equipment: Use little, time wisely
10. Importance of moving across the lifespan: Many die young for a reason
