Learning Objectives
This training is designed to be both educative and experiential. Participants will be engaged in reflective processes, with careful attention placed on the content and pace of each session to give room for deeper learning. Critical to the role of the MBN Facilitator, participants will be invited to reflect on the range of personal and interpersonal processes (observations, thoughts, feelings, experiences) that are elicited by the material. By the end of the training, participants will have had opportunity to consider the MBN group processes from the perspective of the facilitator, the mother and the infant. Day 3 will provide opportunity to reflect on current groups that are in progress.
