Formulation and Consultation
We offer team formulations to understand the needs of the young people you work with, and we provide consultation and reflective practice to teams.
Spotlight Consultations: We offer individual and team sessions using the Mindflick Spotlight profiling tool, which provides a shared and accessible framework for understanding leadership style, motivation, emotional responses and blind spots. We are accredited Spotlight practitioners.
Team Development Days: We offer team development days where multidisciplinary/ward teams can spend time connecting and reflecting on practice and developing action plans. We also offer days for teams and senior leadership teams which are experiencing interpersonal challenges. Rather than traditional 'team-building' activities, the focus is on creating the conditions for meaningful reflection and connection. These days include:
-
considering the current systemic context in which the team operates;
-
reflecting on individual communication styles and how they shift under pressure;
-
developing a better understanding of each other’s patterns, strengths and differences.
We are developing a workshop on emotional resilience for young people. This programme is being piloted with two local authorities.
We work in partnership with the National House Project, providing psychological support to a practitioners working in a number of local authorities.
