This month we’re bringing you five presentations on the themes of neurodiversity, grief, generational trauma and more.

Understanding Generational Trauma, with particular focus on black identity wounding

Aileen Alleyne explores how both trans (history), and inter (family dynamics)
generational trauma can be passed down the generations to create ongoing everyday challenges for our interpersonal interactions and our cultural, racial and social identities.

Doing life in hard mode

Linda-Jayne Elliot explores navigating the world through the eyes of neurodiverse children and young people. She explains how different environments, social interactions and social expectations can leave neurodiverse young people feeling like they are ‘doing life in hard mode’. She asks us to question what social norms are valuable to us and why and asks ‘can we be flexible with social norms’.

The blame game

Alison Templeton uses case studies and research to evidence how introducing no-fault divorces in Northern Ireland (NI) could improve post-divorce parenting relationships and ultimately lead to better outcomes for children. She outlines the current legal situation in NI and explains the term 'no-fault divorce'. 

Developing methods in film therapy and grief counselling

Jenny Hamilton explores developments in film therapy and grief counselling developed by Jenny from a practitioner-researcher perspective.

Reflections of self: navigating body image disorders with Body Image Therapy

Jem Gunn delves into the complexities of body image disorders, with a central focus on Body Dysmorphic Disorder.
