| Extra Info | : | Early Relationships and Mental Health: Session Two With Alison Bruce & Alice Jacobs Waterfall (Facilitator) Alison Bruce will continue with the second talk in our series on early relationships and mental health designed for a wide range of professionals, including parent-infant psychotherapists, child and adolescent psychotherapists, adult and couple psychotherapists as well as those working with parents and infants in other settings. Alison will present her work in a paper entitled “Flapjacks and Tangerines” describing the establishment and continued running of a support group for new parents and babies in a local community. Birth, delivery and the post-partum period can be a really distressing time for any couple. This project provides a forum for parents to share their experiences and forge new relationships within the community at this very vulnerable stage of the lifecycle. Participants will learn how the adaptation of techniques acquired both in infant-observation and child psychotherapy training have been modified and applied to a group setting. Alison will describe in detail a case example of how one mother was able to access and make use of the group in the working through of her own trauma and how the group and the consultation process helped stabilise her. |
