Beatrice Beebe, Ph.D Clinical Professor of Psychology in Psychiatry. College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University, New York USA. Click here for Programme   Click here for Booking Form  Click here to pay by Paypal

Beatrice Beebe is one of the foremost researchers and clinicians currently working in the field of psychoanalysis. Her work spans the fields of infant mental health and adult psychotherapy, and this two-day symposium will provide practitioners with the opportunity to hear her recent findings about patterns of parent-infant interaction and their implications for disorganized attachment, alongside the implications of this new research in terms of adult treatment, using case material. This work builds on some of her earlier publications (e.g. Rhythms of Dialogue in Infancy 2002; and Forms of Intersubjectivity in Infant Research and Adult Treatment 2005) to include more recent work (e.g. The origins of 12-month attachment: A microanalysis of 4-month mother-infant interaction 2010; and Mothers, infants and young children of September 11 2001: A primary prevention project 2012).

This is a unique opportunity to meet Beatrice Beebe, to hear about her latest work, and to join with colleagues for a pre-dinner poetry reading by Professor Edward McCrorie (poet and classicist translator of Homer and Virgil and Beatrice’s husband) and the Symposium dinner on the Saturday evening.

*WHAT PROMOTES INFANT MENTAL HEALTH?
This one day seminar, provided by the registered charity Human Development Scotland (formerly Scottish Institute of Human Relations), looks at what promotes infant mental health and child development and what gets in the way.  It will equip practitioners to work towards the vision set out in the Scottish Government/CoSLA Early Years Framework by focusing on the factors influencing very early life as the period of development that shapes a child’s future outcomes. click here for all information
