Carl has worked with children with trauma  since 1995. He is passionate about sharing his knowledge and skills with parents and caregivers that are interested in learning how to better support a child with challenging behaviors. Carl believes that ALL children can be supported and successful when the philosophy of AEIOU and the critical WHY? is utilized by their parents and caregivers. When caregivers can focus on WHY a child is having difficult behaviors, instead of focusing just on WHAT the child has done, they will be able to meet the child's need.
