Solihull Training
What is it?
The Solihull Approach synthesises three core psychological constructs with the aim of supporting an understanding of behaviours within the context of a relationship.
It provides a thinking framework to help navigate difficult conversations and dysregulated behaviours. As a relational model, it applies to any interactional relationship and therefore maintains relevance across the lifespan.
Initially developed for practitioners working with families, it has expanded to offer training courses from the antenatal phase through to adolescence and adulthood. With an understanding of origins of behaviours, including trauma, the trainings equip practitioners to understand how to best promote emotional regulation and reflection in self and others.
It is not an intervention. Rather the Solihull Approach offers understanding in any situation, to promote quality interactions and relationships, including consumers/service users, the workplace with colleagues or when interacting with other agencies.
Who is it for?
As a relationship-based model it is relevant to anyone working with others. Those who have trained so far in Australia include:
