Hiya all, I hope its ok to put this little request up here on the forum. If this sounds interesting please contact me and I will answer any questions and provide any other details or documentation that might be needed. If anyone knows anyone else they think might be interested they are welcome to pass the information on, I am primarily looking in West London.
My name is Mikael, I am a Student Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist, as part of my training it is essential for me to undertake mother and baby observations to provide me with a deeper understanding of pregnancy, birth and the early life experiences of a baby and attachment development.
I am seeking:
? soon-to-be mother?s with a due date in April, May or early June, 2011 or a
? mother with a new born baby, around one month old or younger
Fathers are more then welcomed to access this also with or without mum, your level of commitment starts with you.
I can provide (for free):
? emotional support
? encourage reflective parenting and self reflection
? hopefully empower you in your parenting
? one hour per week for a maximum of 60 sessions (exact number is agreed together)
? I will attend your home, no need for you to travel
There is a shortage of specially trained Child and Adolescent Psychotherapists, your commitment to this service and my training will enable me to further develop in my Child therapy practice, allowing me to help and support children in need. This is completely free as it is part of my training.
I am happy to answer any questions via phone or email or here on the forum. One or two personal meetings before making a commitment is also completely acceptable, you are welcome to end the arrangement at any time you want, if you dont think it is beneficial.
Kindly
Mikael Penttinen
