In this module, you will develop your knowledge, understanding and skills of working therapeutically with families facing adversity.
You will consider the impact of family circumstances on the developing child and begin to explore the practitioner role in building a therapeutic alliance and working with resistance.
This module will help to prepare you to work therapeutically with children and young people by first recognising the importance of respect, understanding and compassion when building relationships with the child’s support network, holding in mind that these family members may be facing their own personal difficulties which may impact their level of support or availability for the child or young person.
