  1. I'm an NHS psychotherapist and a trainee at the Institute of Psychoanalysis. Part of this clinical training involves a Parent-Infant Observation in which trainees observe a baby's development, and growing emotional relationship with their parent, over the first year of life. If you have a baby due this autumn or winter and are interested to hear more about Parent-Infant Observation, please see the further information on the attached flyer, or contact me at [email protected].
  2. Dear all, I hope you'll excuse my dropping into your thread. I was alerted to the forum by Helen, the Dulwich and district NCT Coordinator. I am a psychotherapist working in the NHS and a trainee at the Institute of Psychoanalysis. Part of my clinical training involves a yearlong Parent-Infant Observation in which trainees observe a baby's development over the first year of life. I am hoping to find a family whose baby is due this autumn, who would be willing for me to visit them, for about an hour each week, in order to observe their ordinary processes of caring for their baby. Observing the phases of a child?s growing emotional relationship with a primary caregiver (usually their mother) is intended to help trainees like myself develop as psychotherapists. And I gather from my Institute that families, too, often gain a lot from the careful attention of an interested person, and come to appreciate the weekly visits. If any of you are interested to hear more, or know of others who might be interested in participating, please do get in touch. My email address is [email protected]. We can then talk over the phone or set up an initial meeting. The Coordinator of the Parent-Infant Observation Seminars, Mrs Fotini Roberts, is also available to discuss any aspect of the course. It is important to stress that confidentiality is preserved at all times as part of this teaching and learning process. No identifying information about the family will be recorded in any observation notes or records created by the trainee or otherwise made available to anyone else. In addition to my academic and clinical qualifications as a psychotherapist working in the NHS, I have a currently valid enhanced DBS police check and Child Safeguarding training to Level 3. Thank you so much for your time.
