What is the Solihull Approach?
The Solihull Approach aims to increase emotional health and well-being for parents/teachers/front-line workers/managers/early childhood/ mental health and health care professionals.
It is an internationally recognised intervention to strengthen the bond between parents and children and has been referred to in the most recent ‘MERTIL’ (Victorian maternal and child health nurses) training aimed at helping to protect our children from the enduring effects of early relational trauma.
Developed in the UK, with this training, participants initially learn to help caregivers/teachers and other professionals identify, acknowledge and understand emotions that often prevent them from sensitively interpreting their infant and child’s behaviour.
