A Responsibility and an Adventure

Françoise Pierredon received degrees in piano performance and clinical psychology in Paris. Her work with children with autism led her to study with Dr Suzuki and Dr Kataoka in Matsumoto, Japan, where she graduated from the Talent Education Institute. She has been a teacher trainer for the Suzuki Association of Americas since 1984, teaching in various settings including an inner-city school, and at institutes in the United States, France, UK, Australia, Canada and Mexico. After getting a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling in 2005, she started working as a Clinical Counselor, most recently at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital in the Therapeutic Interagency Program where she specializes in the treatment of psychological trauma, and she is learning that the work between professionals and parents is an essential and fascinating part of the healing process. Her teaching and her therapeutic approaches include having a supportive and collaborative partnership with parents.
