In this 2-hour webinar, you will meet Hanna Jewell and Nick Barrington, from The Bouverie Centre's Mental Health Program, as they introduce a pre-recorded presentation as well as a live Q&A session. They will introduce you to concepts and practicalities of working with families where someone in the family has experienced or is experiencing serious mental ill-health or illness.
Through the structure of Bouverie's "Family Inclusive Practice Pyramid", you will be introduced to a spectrum of attitudes, practices and interventions that together support high quality mental health care, positive family involvement and good client outcomes. From the foundation of Family Sensitive Practice, through the effective engagement of families in Single Session Family Consultation, to the central qualities of integrated family therapy practice, you will journey across this spectrum of family involvement. We hope for this to be an engaging expedition that leaves you feeling more confident in working with families in your own practice.
