About the Presenters
Dr Fiona Zandt and Dr Suzanne Barrett, are both experienced Clinical Psychologists who work exclusively with children, adolescents, and families. Like most experienced therapists, Fiona and Suzanne’s style is eclectic, drawing on a number of theoretical approaches. Their developmental approach is strongly influenced by their training in, and many years of using, cognitive behavioural therapy with children. A systemic family focus also guides their understanding of children and families and permeates their therapy. In addition, they draw on concepts and interventions from ACT and narrative therapy. Their emphasis is on using play to engage children and to introduce and allow children to explore therapeutic concepts
