They fail to understand that the root cause of stress is the imbalance in the family system, which must be 'reset' to restore harmony in relationships.

About The Author

Hi, my name is Phoebe Long, and I sincerely invite your to explore this methodology that I created across 20 years of my experience in teaching children, teenagers and young adults who have behavioural or learning challenges. As a Montessori-trained teacher, I served as headmistress and principal of two kindergartens using the popular FunGates system. Seeing the dire need, I later founded Breakthru Enrichment Station for special needs children together with her mentor, Pn Ngiam Lian Ai, an award-winning former assistant headmistress of a government school with 34 years of teaching experience.

I have conducted training in Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan and Spain, and presented papers on the 3P.L.A.Y. to Breakthrough in Canada, England, Germany, India, Japan, Malaysia, Scotland, South Korea and Thailand. In addition, I train counsellors and psychologists from Departent of Social Welfare Malaysia (JKMM). I am also passionate in sharing my expertise with higher learning institutes, parent support groups and non-governmental organisations.

Please read the book and share your feedback with me at phoebemw2002@breakthru.com.my. There is always something we can learn from each other. I hope you benefited from my book.
