Upcoming Professional Development Opportunities
Infant Mental Health and the Global Crises in Health and Wellbeing:
Adjusting Our Practices and Screens to this New Distance World
With Tessa Baradon, consultant in Infant Mental Health at the
Anna Frued National Centre for Children and Families in London, England
Monday, September 21
9:00am-10:30am MT
CoAIMH and the Two Lilies Fund are thrilled to welcome Tessa Baradon, to address some of the unique issues that arise when working with infants, young children, and their families via the video platform.
We are currently faced with a tension between the medium of remote provision and the human need for closeness, during this period of heightened societal and personal stress.
In this webinar we will discuss how and whether working online changes the process of:
-
- The experience of parent/s, infant and professional of being and working together online;
- Building and sustaining trusting relationships with families/caregivers of young children;
- Working creatively with presence and loss; and
- Understanding what is ‘good enough’ in these circumstances.
Event Cost
CoAIMH Members: $25.00
Members of an Alliance state: $35.00
Non-Members / General Public: $45.00
PLEASE NOTE: Registration is limited!
*100% of the time spent at this event counts toward IMH-E® / ECMH-E® Training or Annual Renewal requirements. (2020 Renewal hours will go toward 2021 renewal).
