Profession(s)
Psychologist, Mental Health ProfessionalAs a clinical psychologist working with children and families for over 25 years I see the positive difference that collaborative practice can make in the lives of families. My recent book, 'Putting Children First: Proven parenting strategies to help children thrive' highlights the many ways that parents and professionals can foster resilience and wellness before, during and after divorce. As a mother of 7, including 4 wonderful 'bonus' children, I can attest to the effectiveness of these approaches.
