| Description: |
In this ten (10) week, two (2) hour per evening program, MSPP joins with the Boston Institute for the Development of Infants and Parents (BIDIP) to present a series of topics with the goal of familiarizing participants with some key issues in the field of infant mental health. When relevant, there will be time to allow for discussion and application to clinical cases. Participants will be introduced to concepts of infant mental health, infant-parent therapy, clinical applications of attachment theory and the value of infant observation in psychotherapy training. Various challenges in the early infant-parent relationship, including maternal depression and mood disorders, as well as infant feeding and sleep issues, will be discussed. Specific concerns directly related to prematurity in infants and to post adoptive depression will also be addressed. Participants will learn ways this knowledge can be integrated into current clinical work. |
