PARTICIPANTS WILL:
  • Understand key findings from intervention research related to qualities of effective service providers

  • Identify common indicators of "attachment state of mind" as observed in both parent-child and provider-parent interactions

  • Consider ways that culture and shared history may influence and maintain different defensive strategies when a person experiences stress

  • Identify the elements of "reflective supervision" or "reflective consultation" and how they differ from more traditional models of supervision

  • Reflect on examples from both personal and professional experience to understand better how our own working models and states of mind influence our response to challenging situations with the children and families we serve
