STRENGTHEN THE FOUNDATIONS FOR ADULT AND CHILD WELLBEING
WITH I MATTER INFORMED RELATIONSHIP HEALTH APPROACH
The research evidence on improving wellbeing for adults and children clearly tells us that
the way forward requires us to focus on improving skills for relationship health in adult-child AND adult-adult relationships
However building the understanding and skills for relationship health
has NOT EVER been the focus of our education or our health or community policies.
It has not been a priority focus of the way that professionals have been trained in health or in education.
Consequently there are many professionals who do not have a good grasp of principles of relationship health.
Though, many will have some sense that this is an important issue.
But very few will have accessed active training in the dynamic hierarchical developmental foundations of these skills.
Though an understanding of these principles is key to improving outcomes.
Consequently when trying to address challenges in mental health and behaviour, important details are often missed.
Investing in I Matter informed relationship health training gives you an affordable way of
+ Building insight and skills of yourself and your staff team
+ Building insight and skills of parents and carers
+ Building insight and skills of young people
We are interested in working with you to help support more joined up practice between health and education
so you can make a difference n your community.
About Dr Cathy Betoin: Cathy is a practising clinical psychologist, an experienced teacher, and a parent. This training developed in response to seeing many individuals, families and professionals, who were struggling to find the way forward. The training started with families of children with complex needs - then we realised it was relevant to improving confidence in relationship health with all children, in all types of relationships and for those with caring responsibilities at all ages.

If you are in the Kendal area, there is a funded 'brief early intervention' programme that can be accessed by parents who have a Kendal GP. Families should request an appointment and ask about I Matter. We are currently exploring the development of a joined up learning pathway for those with longer term learning needs in partnership with interested schools.
