Facilitated Support Group for Mental Health Staff

Please consider accepting this invitation to participate in a facilitated support group for mental health providers including:

• Psychologists, social workers, MFT’s, and LPC’s
• Other providers who are endorsed through the Center for Early Relational Health as Infant Early Childhood Specialists or Infant Early Childhood Mental Health Specialists*.

Participants must be either employed by, or under contract with, ESIT provider agencies and engaged in work supporting enrolled infants, toddlers, and families. In addition to fostering connections with colleagues doing similar work, this is an opportunity to share insights that can inform systems and policies that support this important work.

Groups will be skillfully facilitated by Dr. Barbara Stroud a licensed psychologist with over three decades of culturally informed clinical practice in early childhood development and mental health.

This is a monthly 45-minute group with 8-9 participants, offered in a 6-month series. You will be asked to make a 6-month commitment when registering for the group.

For questions about this opportunity or to request accommodations, please email: dcyf.ESITtraining@dcyf.wa.gov.

*this is a support group and will not count toward reflective supervision hours. Dr. Barbara Stroud is not credentialed to provide reflective supervision in Washington State.
