The Marte Meo Method : A method for developmental support in everyday life

Marte Meo is a method that contains concrete information about how to support development in everyday moments of interaction. With the help of video recordings of everyday interactions, Marte Meo helps people discover the opportunities to support developmental processes in everyday life.

I have gathered all my information about development from observations of everyday life. This makes the application of Marte Meo such a uniquely appropriate and practical tool for improving the quality of interactions in everyday life. All programmes can be used to change interactions and behavioural patterns in everyday life. In my opinion, changes take place primarily in practical, everyday actions and behaviours, not just in one’s thoughts.

Problems are opportunities for development

Problems we encounter in life can often provide opportunities for growth and development. We often view problems only as difficulties and overlook the possibility that lies within to learn new skills. Problems allow us to discover what skills we have not yet developed. Mastering problems creates opportunities that improve the quality of one’s life.

I firmly believe that most people and families have the potential to solve their own problems and shape their own developmental process
