Your Progress

Supporting clients is both an art and science in order to achieve a positive outcome. As a  practitioner you need to have a good understanding of theories that might help you to explain behaviour and actions of others. These theories  will help with giving meaning and a better understanding of phenomena and the world around us.

Practitioners should be encouraged to use a variety of resources and approaches when supporting service users. For example understanding concepts such as peer pressure, group dynamics and behaviour management might help with equipping us with ideas about the best way to respond and meet needs.

We have put together a number of resources that focuses on theories which you can access by visiting the  next topics.
