Building Brains Together: Partnering with Caregivers to Support Infant and Toddler Development |
This training explores how professionals can strengthen outcomes in infant and early childhood mental health (IECMH) systems by partnering with caregivers. The session will begin with a grounding definition of Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health (IECMH) as the capacity of young children to experience, express, and regulate emotions; form secure relationships; and explore the environment—all within the context of caregiving relationships. Through this lens, we will review developmental neuroscience, attachment theory, explore the core principles of relationship-based practice from an Infant Mental Health perspective, and examine common tensions providers face when shifting from “doing for” to “partnering with” caregivers. Using evidence-based models and implementation strategies, participants will leave with a deeper understanding of how to support caregiver capacity in ways that enhance, not replace, their professional role. Presenter: Dr. Robert Gallen, PhD, IMH-E from the University of Pittsburgh Target Audience: This session is designed for IT and PS Early Interventionists, Direct Service Providers, Educators, Therapists, Supervisors and Service Coordinators, Family Support Home Visiting Staff, Early Childhood Educators and Families.
