“The problem is the problem, the person is not the problem.
Michael White and David Epston”
Michael Ungar, Strengths-Based Counseling With At-Risk Youth

“We can make ourselves more resilient by making the world around us supportive.”
Michael Ungar, Change Your World: The Science of Resilience and the True Path to Success

“We simply can no longer persist in believing that children's pathways to health are dysfunctional when our children behave in ways that trouble us. We must listen closely to our children's accounts of their lives and their elaborate negotiations for opportunities to see themselves as people who belong, are trustworthy, competent and caring. We must embrace their risk-taking and responsibility-seeking behaviours as normal expressions of their search for an adult-like status. We must stand beside our children and provide them the advantage that comes from exposure to the right amount of risk and responsibility.”
Michael Ungar, Too Safe for Their Own Good: How Risk and Responsibility Help Teens Thrive
