Once we know the source of the problem, we can better understand how to fix it. In a sequence that replicates the original construction of the house—the brain—we put in place a “rebuilding/renovation” plan. With the problem areas in mind, we can provide experiences—both educational and therapeutic—that jump-start and reorganize the systems that were impacted by neglect, adversity, and trauma. We have a better idea about how to select and sequence therapeutic experiences—a better grasp of what we can do to help, and when.
