Advanced Practitioner Certificate in Parent- Child Therapy (TISUK and IATE joint award)

A profound training that changes lives, designed to prevent intergenerational transfer of trauma.

Support parents to:

• Address their own unprocessed childhood trauma.
• Develop the art of PACE (Dan Hughes) mental state talk, social joy and relational repair. 
• Become skilled in using Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy interventions effectively.

Be able to mentalize so they can attune to and engage with children at different developmental stages: infancy, middle childhood, the teenage years. 

• Make the shift from stress-inducing to stress-reducing interactions. 
• Engage in conversations to bring about relational repair with their children.
• Have regular enriching interactions rather than family members in separate rooms/on their own devices.
• Stay regulated and contactful in the face of behaviours that challenge. 
• Put down boundaries in a way that is respectful and non-shaming.
