Prepare to gain a new perspective on developmental approaches as we sit down with Jeff Guenzel, an esteemed counselor and psychotherapist who currently leads the International Council on Development and Learning (ICDL). Jeff shares his extensive knowledge on the DIR Floortime approach, a framework designed to guide and enrich the developmental journey of children, particularly those with significant differences. Using the vivid analogy of a GPS-guided journey, we uncover how developmental capacities, individual differences, and affective relationships work together to support each child's unique path.
Explore the contrasts between developmental models like DIR and behavioral approaches such as ABA. Jeff and I discuss the challenges and rewards of researching developmental methods, which may unfold more slowly but promise lasting benefits by embracing neurodivergence and focusing on quality of life. Parents often witness early, meaningful changes in their children, and we provide reassurance by highlighting the growing body of research supporting these transformative approaches.
Rounding out our episode, we delve into the critical role of parent involvement and authentic relationships in therapeutic practices. With insights into the global reach of the DIR Floortime, especially in systems like the NDIS in Australia, we emphasize the importance of parent-implemented approaches and the joy of building a supportive community. You'll find out how organizations like ICDL and Profectum are working to advance evidence-based practices while respecting the diverse needs of families navigating various therapies.
