More information
The Practitioner Guide is directed towards professionals who may be supporting the child and adults involved across the transition process. The practitioner may come from a range of professional backgrounds and may already be involved in the overall support of the child (e.g. a social worker involved in the child’s care) or be a professional who becomes involved to facilitate the transition work.
The Practitioner Guide includes all of the information contained in the Foster Carers and Adopter Guide and, in addition, provides guidance on a range of issues including how to manage the complex adult dynamics that can arise, how to facilitate the Theraplay® and narrative parts of the sessions and how to write a therapeutic story.
It is strongly recommended that practitioners who are using the By Your Side model to inform their work attend the two-day By Your Side practitioner training delivered by The Family Place. In order to facilitate the work effectively using this model you will need to have attended Theraplay® and DDP Level 1 Trainings. Key elements of the model can be applied by all.
