Nurtured Heart Approach Training (NHA)
- The Nurtured Heart Approach® is a relationship-focused methodology based on a 3 Stands™ strategy to help children (and adults) build their Inner Wealth® and use their intensity in successful ways.
- The approach has been successfully implemented in thousands of classrooms around the world, proving to be a powerful way of awakening the inherent greatness in all children whilst facilitating classroom success.
The essence of the approach is a set of core principles originally developed for working with the most difficult children. It has a proven impact on every child, including those who are challenged behaviourally, socially and academically. The NHA makes a huge difference to those children diagnosed with ADHD, ODD, Reactive Attachment Disorder and other behavioural, emotional and anxiety related symptoms – almost always without the need for long-term mental health treatment.
Through this training you will be shown how simple it is, not only to improve the situation with a challenging or difficult child, but also to transform children through the awareness that their intensity is actually the source of their greatness.
The benefits of the approach:
- Understand the unique dynamics of the challenging child
- Helps a child towards using their intensity in successful ways

- Build a family/school culture of authentic connection and trust
