Event Details
Description
You’ll be needing a good history”: IPCAPA, 100 years before that and a few people you should really know.
Ann Horne is being allowed to ramble and reminisce about our history as a training institution, the context and development of child and family mental health services in the UK, and some important principles stemming from this to keep in mind. On the way, you will meet some delightful folk who are partly the reason you find yourselves here, now.
The quote in the title is something she has probably said to every person - trainee or colleague - whom she has supervised or engaged with in consultation…. Just as the history informs us about the child patient - and often contains the key to the symptomatology - so our history is part of your grounding in this profession and this training school.
PS There will be no essay required at the end….
About the Speaker
Ann Horne is a Fellow of the British Psychotherapy Foundation. A former head of the child and adolescent psychotherapy training and of post-graduate development at the BAP (where she trained) and a past editor of the Journal of Child Psychotherapy, Ann co-edited with Monica Lanyado The Handbook of Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy. She conceived the Independent Psychoanalytic Approaches with Children and Adolescents series for Routledge which she now co-edits with Teresa Bailey following Monica’s retirement. Routledge published her selected papers (On Children Who Privilege the Body – reflections of an Independent psychotherapist) in 2018. Retired from NHS work, latterly after 10 years at the Portman Clinic in London, she occasionally writes, teaches, and enjoys consultations with peers. Her interests still centre on adolescents and children who act rather than being able to access thought and reflection.
