What's the real cost of therapy? Ali and Karl Chat no 8
Are we waiting too long to support children’s mental health?
In this honest conversation, Ali Knowles and Karl Bennett talk about what happens when we focus only on a child’s behaviour, rather than asking what might be happening underneath it.
Children are often offered different interventions, different language and different strategies. All with the very best intentions, but for a child already struggling, it can become confusing.
Ali explains why the Ollie Model takes a different approach. We help children understand their emotions as superpowers and give them simple, practical tools they can actually use. Just as importantly, we include the parents, carers, and teachers around them so everyone speaks the same language.
Because children should not have to reach a crisis point before they receive help.
