After the fantastic success of last years National Conference in Dublin we are bringing it to Belfast for 2020. We are very excited  and are currently negoiating with the venue and creating a new bespoke style conference. One thing for sure it will be very engaging and exciting for our community of practitioners. Once we have all our speakers and contributors confirmed we will launch the conference brochure. So Keep this Date free to join us.

This training is for practitioners who wish to extend their work to babies/toddlers and their parents/carers using a simple attachment approach.  The programme is based on the very latest research mechanisms which show us how caregivers change and how attachment is operationalised in practice. The programme is designed to intervene early (in the first 1001 days) when attachment internal working models are being formed or are most likely to change.

We know that good mental health begins early in life, and is particularly influenced by our relationships with our primary caregivers. This relationship between parent and child is referred to as an attachment.

Sometimes this attachment can be secure and healthy, but for around 30% of the population, their attachment is insecure and can lead to mental health difficulties later in life. Event hosted by ‘The British Psychological Society, NI”
