In an increasingly digital world, therapists are discovering innovative ways to create accessible and engaging services for children, young people and families. Digital tools—including digital sandtrays and videogames—offer new opportunities to connect with clients in meaningful ways, supporting therapeutic work in both face-to-face and online settings. This interactive course explores how these tools can be integrated into practice to enhance engagement and therapeutic outcomes. 

This training is designed for systemic practitioners and family therapists. It will also be useful for anyone that works therapeutically with children and families. This course will take place on Thursday 15th October between 09:30am to 17:30pm.

Supported by the Maudsley Eating Disorder Service

Multi-family group treatment is a growing evidence-based intervention which is used as an adjunct to single family therapy. The format draws on the experience of a number of families and increases motivation, commitment and a sense of sharing between them. This collective experience is balanced by the presence of staff members who guide families during a range of exercises and most crucially during lunch and snack times. The intensive days are spent in a range of ‘sub-groups’ including young people, siblings, and parents on their own.

Multi-family groups have been adapted for a range of presentations including adult mental health issues, ADHD, and paediatric illnesses. 

This experiential training seeks to orientate clinicians into the full workings of a group. A number of the key exercises used in each group will be practiced and each participant will take up a role in a created family. The training will be suitable and beneficial for any clinician working with a diagnosis of eating disorder, whether in CAMHS or adult services. Significant systemic facilitation techniques will be demonstrated and later deconstructed. The Maudsley Manual for MFGT will be followed and adapted.

This training will be delivered by Louise Cooper & Jo Sleep.

Our resiliency is regularly challenged in our personal, clinical and professional lives. These challenges are especially evident within healthcare roles, whether this be within the NHS, third sector or charitable organisations, given the demands and complexity working as part of the mental and physical health workforce. Recognition has resulted in several developments, including a session focusing on enhancing resiliency incorporated into several training curricula. 

This workshop is open to PWP's & MHWP's only and will be held remotely via Zoom from 09:30am to 16:30pm.

Through intensified breathing, evocative music, focused bodywork, expressive drawing, and group integration, participants are guided into non-ordinary states that can surface insight, healing, and a deeper encounter with themselves.
