This presentation will aim to both introduce the foundations of Infant Mental Health and expand the knowledge base of those familiar with the practice. During this course, we will examine the historical background and relevance of IMH as well as how we can utilize IMH practices in both clinical and other relevant settings to support child development, secure attachment, and lifelong relational wellness. Relevant to this work, the course will explore the development of attachment styles, including delving into each of the 4 primary styles. In addition, we will explore the use of self and the importance of clinical reflective capacity and supervision.
