SUMMARY:DIR + FAN
DESCRIPTION:The Development\, Individual Differences\, Relationship-based (DIR®) Model\, co-created by Drs. Serena Wieder and Stanley Greenspan\, has always centered parents and caregivers as the essential relationships that underpin development.\nFacilitating Attuned Interactions (FAN) is a conceptual framework and training model for improving the communication skills of professionals who serve families. Developed by Linda Gilkerson\, PhD of Erikson Institute\, FAN has been used across the US and internationally as a tool for helping professionals feel more connected and responsive to families. \nCombining FAN with the DIR® Model amplifies practitioners’ resources for supporting families. Professionals feel more effective in their work and parents are ready to read their children’s cues and know at any given moment how to respond to their needs. \nThe goal of the DIR+FAN Training is to build professional capacity in reflective practice to strengthen our relationships with parents\, supporting DIR’s parent-mediated intervention and coaching model. With DIR+FAN\, DIR® practitioners can attune to the parents’ experience of the DIR® Model\, while holding parents’ concerns about a child’s development\, challenging behavior\, and other concerns at the center of their practice. This innovative training builds better relationships between professionals and parents\, and ultimately between parents and their children\, because it helps providers adapt to clients’ needs in the moment and stay emotionally in tune. It also helps professionals reflect on the meaning of a client’s behavior\, and it helps them find more compassion for themselves through self-regulation.\n\nThe DIR+FAN training originated in a special initiative developed through a partnership between Profectum’s Senior Advisor and co-creator of the DIR® Model Serena Wieder and FAN creator Linda Gilkerson of the Erikson Institute\, along with Profectum’s Faculty members Rebecca Berg\, Socorro Cornejo\, and Kristin McNally. \nPowerful outcomes of DIR+FAN Course include:\n\n\nDeveloping parents’ understanding of child and self\n\n\nBuilding parents’ confidence and capacity to manage uncertainty\n\n\nStrengthening parent-child relationships\n\n\nCourse Format: \n\n7 live online 2-hour sessions (5/9\, 5/23\, 6/6\, 6/20)\n4 training sessions\n3 mentoring sessions (7/1\, 7/25\, 8/8 or 7/18\, 8/1\, 6/15)\nAll sessions must be attended\nFAN Training Modules\nDIR+FAN Reflective Learning Tools

SUMMARY:Digging Deeper Part 2: Moving from Reflection to Practice Continuing the Work of Decolonizing Reflective Supervision
DESCRIPTION:May 28\, 2025\, 12pm-2pm \nCost: $100 \nFacilitated by Dr. Amittia Parker and Carmen Rosa Noroña \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis training builds on the insights shared during the November 2024 Digging Deeper: Decolonizing Reflective Supervision webinar. Part 1 laid the foundation\, exploring the findings of the Digging Deeper Study and the historical and structural forces that shape the practice of Reflective Supervision/Consultation (RSC). Part 2 shifts from awareness to action\, focusing on the implications of this work for practice\, policy\, and systems change. \nThis session offers an opportunity to engage more deeply with the findings\, reflect on their relevance to your work\, and consider tangible steps for integrating an anti-racist\, equity-informed lens into RSC. For those joining for the first time\, this event will provide a valuable space to explore how the IECMH field can continue evolving in ways that honor the voices\, histories\, and expertise of all communities. \nJoin us as we continue this essential conversation—one that is not only relevant but necessary for the future of reflective supervision and IECMH. \nRegister now.

SUMMARY:The Ripple Effect
DESCRIPTION:This workshop presents an integrative framework for understanding and communication across systems about how trauma can affect a child\, a family\, and a system. The framework was developed by Chandra Ghosh Ippen\, Christopher Layne\, and Bob Pynoos of the National Child Traumatic Stress Network (NCTSN) and is adapted from core trauma concepts identified and ratified by the NCTSN Core Curriculum on Childhood Trauma Task Force. The Ripple Effect translates complex trauma concepts using metaphor\, visual models\, common language\, and rich case example and shows: 1) the domains of functioning affected by trauma; 2) the mechanisms through which trauma affects development; and 3) intervention pathways. This workshop offers foundational trauma knowledge for providers and highlights ways to share trauma theory with family members and across systems (e.g.\, schools\, child welfare\, mental health\, medical system\, judiciary\, police) as we work jointly to lessen the impact of trauma exposure. Register now. \nThursday\, May 29 2025\, 9:30am – 3pm\nFriday\, May 30 2025\, 9:30am – 3pm

SUMMARY:Foundations of IECMH
DESCRIPTION:Fridays 5/30\, 6/6\, 6/13\,6/20\, 6/27 from 9:00 am – 12:00 pm \nInfant and early childhood mental health includes the capacities for developing enjoyable\, trusting relationships with others; experiencing\, communicating\, and managing a range of emotions; and playing and learning.

Participants will learn trends in current research and theory related to early development\, relationships\, and professional practice\, and will engage in collaborative discussions and learning activities designed to illustrate principles of infant and early childhood mental health and the use of reflective\, relationship-based approaches in understanding and supporting infants\, young children\, and their families. \nESIT providers are eligible for this training. \nRegister now

SUMMARY:Supporting children with alcohol and/or drug exposure and their families: An informed approach to intervention and supports
DESCRIPTION:Prenatal substance exposure (PSE) can have long-term impacts on a person’s development and supporting children and families impacted by PSE requires a shift from traditional approaches in parenting\, therapy intervention\, and family support. Approximately 1 infant is diagnosed with neonatal abstinence syndrome every 24 minutes\, and about 1 in 7 pregnant people report drinking alcohol. The high prevalence of PSE means it’s likely current providers have these children on their current caseloads\, even if they aren’t aware of it! \nAfter completing this training\, participants will be able to identify the impacts of prenatal drug and/or alcohol exposure on a developing child and provide support\, interventions\, and resources that meet these children and their families’ needs. Register now. \n\nDates: June 16\, 18\, and 26\nTime: 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. (with a 1-hour lunch break each day)\nCost: Free

SUMMARY:The Ripple Effect
DESCRIPTION:This workshop presents an integrative framework for understanding and communication across systems about how trauma can affect a child\, a family\, and a system. The framework was developed by Chandra Ghosh Ippen\, Christopher Layne\, and Bob Pynoos of the National Child Traumatic Stress Network (NCTSN) and is adapted from core trauma concepts identified and ratified by the NCTSN Core Curriculum on Childhood Trauma Task Force. The Ripple Effect translates complex trauma concepts using metaphor\, visual models\, common language\, and rich case example and shows: 1) the domains of functioning affected by trauma; 2) the mechanisms through which trauma affects development; and 3) intervention pathways. This workshop offers foundational trauma knowledge for providers and highlights ways to share trauma theory with family members and across systems (e.g.\, schools\, child welfare\, mental health\, medical system\, judiciary\, police) as we work jointly to lessen the impact of trauma exposure. Register now. \nThis activity will be held ** IN PERSON ** The details of the exact location will be provided closer to the event date.
