The use of videoing in parent-infant psychotherapy
Hilary Wright
This presentation will look at how video work can be used when working with mothers and babies of up to two years old where there are difficulties in attachment. Sometimes when a parent can look at the detail of their interaction with their baby on video they can begin to have some different ideas about their baby and themselves. OXPIP clinicians have been trained in VIG (Video Interaction Guidance) and this method focuses on looking at the positive and building on what works well between parents and their babies.
