CAMP Mental Health
A systematic framework to assess and meet needs
The CAMP framework is designed to help frontline workers–educators, healthcare workers, business professionals–assess and meet the needs of clients, patients, students or staff.
Contact us today to improve resilience, motivation and retention for you as a leader, your staff and the people you serve.
We can’t address a problem until we understand it’s roots (unmet needs).
Burnout and staff turnover rates are rising across education, healthcare, and frontline services. Most organizations offer crisis support after staff are overwhelmed.
CAMP is different. We give you and your team the tools they need to lead with calm, confidence, and connection—before things fall apart.
C-A-M-P:
C-A-M-P is the framework you’re looking for. Developed over years of teaching, counselling, and clinical practice, backed by neuroscience.
It builds motivation and resilience by meeting belonging needs, so children and adults alike can rise to any challenge. CAMP is the proactive work.
It’s what I wish every professional, family, school system had in place.
It’s how we build inner strength and outer support.

What Professionals Are Saying

Uplift Association - Tabitha Simson
"CAMP takes what my heart knows to be true and presents it in an actionable way. The focus on Connection, Control and Purpose as its foundation gives a grounding, simplified, and sequential way to look at behaviour and mental health, cohesively! What a treasure! I am celebrating the creation of CAMP as a parent, practitioner, and human being, it feels like just what the world needs right now. Thank you Dayna for creating something so accessible, for your hard work and research, and for your bravery in bringing this to our community! I can't wait for people to become familiar with this refreshing take on challenging behaviour and what we can all do to support youth, and ourselves, in this way."

I really enjoyed the CAMP workshop with Dayna. She was able to clearly outline her CAMP approach to working with children and youth. I think this framework is comprehensive and can really impact how we approach challenging behaviors from a mental health perspective. I love that Dayna believes the child can help find solutions and that intrinsic motivation is an important part of the framework. I work mainly with early years families and I am a parent so I can use this approach in both my professional and personal life.

The Science Behind CAMP:
Grounded in Neuroscience. Informed by Real Life.
CAMP is rooted in belonging science. When people feel calm, connected, and aligned with purpose, the brain’s ability to problem-solve and lead dramatically increases. We help your staff build this inner foundation.
Why It Works:
Resilience isn’t built by accident—it’s developed through intentional practices that restore energy, motivation, and purpose. The C-A-M-P framework is based on proven neuroscience and professional experience, giving individuals the tools they need to build inner strength, prevent burnout, and respond to life’s challenges with calm, confidence, and clarity.
When professionals feel “full from within” (have their needs met), they gain the capacity to lead others, navigate setbacks, and sustain long-term impact without depleting their emotional reserves.
CAMP is proactive.
CAMP prevents crisis.
CAMP is how you become full from within.
