The work

Psychological expertise translated into a structured system for action and review.

Dr Hanan Bushkin developed ABA to address a recurring gap between psychological understanding and everyday implementation: people may understand why they feel or behave as they do, yet still need a coherent way to decide what to do next.

The resulting methodology connects meaningful life direction with observable behaviour, structured practice, tracking and recalibration. It is being developed across public education, workshops, professional training, institutional programmes, a research agenda and a future digital platform.

Dr Hanan's work centres on making psychologically informed change clearer, more actionable and more responsive to the realities of daily life.
