Training Description
This training is targeted to staff who work with youth and their families in our continuum of care within community settings such as in the schools and homes. We will focus on understanding how to diagnose ineffective family relationship patterns and traumatic attachment ruptures via the use of Pain in the Heart Theory (PITH). Once we are able to diagnose the pain, we will be ready to know where the healing needs to occur so that our youth can start experiencing positive outcomes in all of their settings including more likelihood of not being removed from the home, successful reunifications and more sustainable permanent placements!
Learning Objectives
Identify the top primary family systems concepts that create the basis for Pain in the Heart Theory.
List the 4 Diagnostic Pain Questions that underlie Pain in the Heart (PITH) Theory and which concepts each one addresses.
