What is the Solihull Approach Thinking About Neurodivergence Advanced Seminar?

Solihull Approach Thinking About Neurodivergence Advanced Seminar provides a space to think about neurodivergence in the context of the Solihull Approach model. The seminar addresses how an understanding of containment, reciprocity and behaviour can contribute to working with a neurodivergent child.

The Solihull Approach was founded in practice and all of our training is evidence-based, developed by psychologists, child psychotherapists, and practitioners. It is a way of thinking and working with families, groups or one-to-one that transcends professions and communities.

What difference will it make?

Solihull Approach Thinking About Neurodivergence Advanced Seminar is designed to consolidate practitioners' learning from the 2 Day Foundation training and apply it to working with neurodivergent children and their parents, who may also be neurodivergent. It will provide the best value as part of a theory-into-practice strategy that includes work discussion time, the Refresher Day and the seminars on brain development, attachment and trauma.

The Solihull Approach and our network of trained practitioners are passionate about early intervention and responsive relationships supporting mental health and wellbeing. The Solihull Approach has a significant evidence base both quantitative and qualitative showing the improvements in the parent-child relationship, child prosocial behaviour, behaviour difficulties, parental anxiety and stress, and practitioner satisfaction.
