The SAF-NET is designed to reinforce competency, assets, resources and strengths.  This is a non-pathological approach that focuses on the building of capacity and resilience.  SAF-NET recognizes that we have to work with the body and sensory system as well as cognition, self-awareness and Self-reflection. Remember that one’s reality is a created experience. One’s perceptions or attributions about the world in which their lives unfold is a construct (schema) that has been crafted through time by environmental experience and the beliefs, expectations and valuing that is placed on the environmental elements.  No two people share the same perception completely.
