Children behave in particular ways because it makes sense to them - Butler & Green's reminder. Ep.62

from Drawing the Ideal Self (Personal Construct Psychology - PCP) · host Heather Moran

This episode is a great reminder of why we should always explore young people's own views of when we try to understand their problems. Butler and Green explain the value of taking a PCP approach to working with young people but their reasoning and the application of theory applies equally well to adults. Note that they use the term PCT here i.e. Personal Construct Therapy.Reference:Butler, R.J. & Green, D. 2007). The Child Within. Taking the Young Person's Perspective by Applying Personal Construct Psychology. 2nd Ed.
