The Mini-MERTIL Introduction course has 3 themes over 8 chapters

Theme 1: Development in a relational context

  • Infant trauma: a relational, developmental and humanising framework; Attachment development and the transmission of caregiving trauma

Theme 2: Signs and symptoms of early relational trauma

  • Recognising relational trauma in caregivers, infants, toddlers and pre-schoolers

Theme 3: Effective trauma informed conversations and interventions

  • Creating supportive trauma-informed conversations for a shared recognition of risk; Responding to trauma – brief and enhanced interventions

Mini-MERTIL Introduction is ideal for those frontline healthcare practitioners who:

  • Are new to working with families and young children, or don't see them regularly
  • Feel they may be seeing relational trauma in the parent-child dyads they see
  • Feel there's more going on in a parent-child relationship, but are unsure what that may be
