"He smiled as he moved away in a shimmer of light and sparkling stars" Ben's world is turned upside down when he learns that his dad might be leaving. He goes with his best friend, Kirsty, and her big brown dog, Dancer, to their secret den in the forest, his favourite place in the whole wide world. This is where they meet Angus the Angel who shows them how to deal with fear by charging up their inner power. This has a magical effect on them both and Ben feels strong and happy again. But not for long! Ben hates hearing his parents arguing and loneliness makes things worse when Kirsty gets sick and he can't see her. How can he cope and when will he see Kirsty again? Who can he talk to? Is it true that the den is about to be destroyed by building work? Could it be saved by a mystical secret he has discovered deep in the forest? Most of all though how can he stop his dad from leaving? Why does Angus not step in to help especially if he is a REAL angel? Why is everything getting worse instead of better and why can't things not go back to the way they used to be? Everything is falling apart and Ben feels as if his beloved cat, Molly, is the only one in his family who cares about him. He feels lost, alone and afraid.

A key finding was that: "When parents shifted from being invested in external 'expert' treatment to having a sense of their capacities to make a difference for their child, they finished the [treatment] program with increased hope."

Amongst several publications, she is the author of the best-selling book: 'Growing Yourself Up: How to bring your best to all of life's relationships.' Jenny founded the Family Systems Institute, Sydney Australia in 2004. She is a clinical member and supervisor for the Australian Association of Family Therapy.
