The Centre for Research in Family Health focuses on psychosocial research in mental health, physical health, and family well being. We also provide service on evidence-based interventions that have been designed by our Centre. Our multidisciplinary group is involved in both clinical and epidemiological research including child and family health and health services. We have outstanding expertise in both quantitative and qualitative methodology, as well as distance and web based interventions.
Parents have always sought out wise counsel about the challenges they face in raising their children. In past generations, this information came from grandparents or other family members. Today, families are more sophisticated and want advice informed by the latest and best scientific evidence. With Ask Dr. Pat they receive step-by-step specific advice rather than general advice on their query.

The Family Help Program has been designed to help families learn to deal with common childhood problems in the comfort and privacy of their home. It provides up-to-date care that helps parents and children learn to deal with common childhood problems. The goal is to recognize and treat signs early to prevent the problem from getting worse.
Education and treatment is provided through telephone contact with trained coaches, written manuals, videotapes, and audiotapes. The Program schedules appointment times at the convenience of the families in the comfort and privacy of their homes.
