Working with concerns about a parent's capacity to be 'good enough'

Location: Nano Nagle Place

Address: Douglas Street, T12 X70A Cork

Date: 24 May

Let's Grow Together, Dr Nicola O'Sullivan and the Special Interest Group in Perinatal and Infant Mental Health are delighted to welcome Dr Amanda Jones to Cork in March 2023. This highly anticipated workshop is supported by the Heath of Frontline Practice. This not for profit event will provide attendees with an opporutnity to consider work with parents and infants in a supported and facilitated environment.

For any professional practitioner, developing an opinion on what constitutes ‘good enough’ parental care is a complicated task. It involves getting to know a parent’s history and trying to understand a parent’s conscious and unconscious conflicting feelings about their baby. It also involves thinking about the different social circumstances that may be creating intolerable stress for a parent. This workshop will describe a model to help clinicians systematically think about what’s important from a baby’s point of view and a way of sharing concerns with a parent and proactively addressing concerns. The model can help practitioners work with the inevitable worry when risk and safeguarding concerns are evident.
