Putting Mental Health Back in Infant Mental Health

  • AK-AIMH PO Box 240331 Anchorage United States (map)

Presenter:Dr. Arietta Slade

Webinar Description: Many adults who participate in parent or child interventions have mental health issues (anxiety, depression, complex trauma disorders, PTSD, etc.) that can significantly challenge clinicians who may have little training in evaluating or treating adult mental health difficulties. In such circumstances, clinicians can become overwhelmed, leaving parents without the necessary resources and help. In this session, some of the skills that all practitioners can bring to addressing mental health problems will be discussed, along with some basic frameworks for approaching diagnostic and treatment questions outside of the context of formal mental health training.
