Discovering that your child is self-harming is understandably fear- inducing for any parent. Drawing on Bowen family systems theory, PHP invites parents to consider first how they are responding when safety fears are raised – rather than focusing on the details of the self-harm and diagnoses.In this podcast Jenny Brown interviews leading Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist Dr Annemaree Bickerton about parenting when a child is self-harming. They cover some of these questions:What are the different ways parents might respond to a child’s cutting?How can we make sense of young people’s self-harm? What do you think it helps for parents to be aware of?How can parents contribute to a child's safety without removing their child’s agency?What are your thoughts on helpful parent and young person conversations about suicide risks?Previous podcast with Annemaree Bickerton:https://parenthopeproject.com.au/podcasts/staying-connected-when-emotions-run-high/To watch the video mentioned – This is an excellent resource!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_B61YifyrMTo read about the safety first model https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/anzf.1055for more papers: https://www.researchgate.net/scientific-contributions/Annemaree-Bickerton-28411169Dr Bickerton is the co-developer of the training: STAYING CONNECTED WHEN EMOTIONS RUN HIGH.Upcoming Workshops:https://www.islhd.health.nsw.gov.au/services-clinics/family-and-carer-mental-health-program-0/staying-connected-when-emotions-run-highNewsletter-https://parenthopeproject.com.au/#newsletter Youtube-http://www.youtube.com/@ParentHopeProject Facebook-https://www.facebook.com/coachingparents Instagram-https://www.instagram.com/parenthopeproject/ LinkedIn-https://www.linkedin.com/company/79093727/admin/feed/posts/ Website-https://parenthopeproject.com.au/ Contact us: [email protected] (02) 9904 5600
