Trainer: Joy Gamble, Educational and Child Psychologist
This course is open to those professionals who have undertaken DDP Level One training and are beginning to use the principles and interventions of Dyadic Developmental Practice, Parenting and Psychotherapy in their day to day work.
It focuses on gaining a deeper understanding of the theory, successes and barriers experienced by participants in applying the model in practice, more videos and discussion of DDP and the impact of participant’s own attachment experiences.
It is helpful if participants have examples of their own DDP practice, such as case studies and/or recordings, to share with the group.
Please note that while Level One and Two are open access for professionals working with children and families, there are specific requirements that need to be fulfilled for those who plan to go on to apply for certification as a Practitioner in DDP. Please refer to What is required before starting the practicum for further information.
Note from Headlands:
“This DDP Level Two course will have a particular focus on using DDP in Residential and Educational Settings
Headlands is an independent day and residential special school that provides high quality education and care to children and young people aged 7 to 19 years. Our therapeutic model of education and residential care is based on the principles of Dyadic Developmental Practice (DDP) and has been developed by the staff at Headlands residential homes and school. The model is designed for children and young people who have experienced early developmental trauma and those young people with a diagnosis of Autistic Spectrum Conditions. Our model holds the child at the centre of our thinking and is structured to meet the complex needs of all the children and young people we work with.
Every attendee will be required to do a lateral flow test on each the day of the training. Please enquire about our COVID policies and procedures (contact Sian Wood) to ensure you are happy with the arrangements prior to booking.”
