What does the training include?
Infants, children, and adolescents typically don't present to mental health services alone. There are usually others involved, requiring the consideration of a systemic approach to assessment, diagnosis, formulation & treatment planning. These "others" may range from immediate carers to the schools the young person attends, or to wider service providers such as GPs, Child Protection, Family Services, Paediatricians, or a variety of private services.
Equally, after assessment, it might be that alternate services are required, or treatment should be undertaken in a shared-care type arrangement. In this seminar we explore how we identify who is involved in the young person's life and how we might go about engaging these services and the family to make sense of the presentation we are seeing and coordinate our approaches to treatment planning.
Participants will have the opportunity to discuss and reflect on the following questions:
