Event Synopsis
The workshop will provide a forum to hear and discuss the latest research on the effectiveness of Video Interaction Guidance (VIG) which aims to give parents the chance to reflect on and enhance their relationship with their children.
The first part will explain what VIG is, how it was developed from its origins in the Netherlands and why it works when it does. Hilary Kennedy will propose that VIG build on Interaction Guidance where pleasurable mother-infant interactions are viewed by adding a 'supervised' reflective interaction between parent and therapist.
The core theoretical base of intersubjectivity of both the parents with their children and the therapist with the parents will be emphasised and extended to show links with Positive Psychology, Narrative Therapy.
Recently evaluated VIG interventions with mothers and their babies (pre and post-natal) from the Netherlands and Czech Republic along with on-going work from the UK will be described, with a focus on looking at the impact on depressed mothers.
Speaker
Hilary Kennedy, VIGuk Supervisor, Chartered Educational Psychologist, Programme Leader of the VEROC Centre, University of Dundee, and Honorary Senior Lecturer at Department of Clinical, Educational and Health Psychology, UCL
