Introduction to projective assessment in EP practice: Object relations technique (ORT)
- This event has passed.
Projective techniques are powerful tools to gain the voice of the child and explore aspects of their experience that may not be well understood. When carefully analysed and triangulated with other sources of information, projective techniques can open up conversations with children, families and staff that can facilitate deep understanding of difficulties, and help to create change.
This course will provide an introduction to techniques and resources that can be easily incorporated into EP work. Attendees will have opportunities for reflective peer supervision and develop their skills in administrating, analysing, feeding back and reporting on projective material.
The course is made up of 7 sessions. The greatest benefit will come from attending the course as a whole, but there are limited tickets available for individual sessions. All sessions will take place on Tuesdays from 6-8pm via Zoom or Microsoft Teams.
Learning Objectives:
To provide an introduction to the history of the test and how it is used.
To explore administration of the test.
To develop an understanding of approaches to analysis of the test.
To develop confidence in the analysis of the test through practice and reflective peer supervision of a live case. Participants are encouraged to try out the test and bring material to the session. It is hoped that each person will have an opportunity to present material throughout the course.
