📣 Hello fellow members of PsychiSoc!We have an upcoming meeting on "Effectively engaging parents in children’s mental health treatment" followed by FCAP End of Year Dinner.
🎤 Speaker: Dr Jenny Brown has been working in child and family mental health and family therapy since the 1980s. She has been a trainer, supervisor, author, and researcher in the field in Australia and internationally for some decades.
Jenny is the Emeritus Executive Director of the Family Systems Institute Sydney, which she co-founded in 2004. She currently directs the Family Systems Practice and the Parent Hope Project (manualised interventions in child mental health). Her particular interest is family dynamics and children's well-being, reflected in her PhD research on parents' experience of their child's mental health treatment (conducted at Redbank House WSLHD, where Jenny had been a supervisor for 8 years prior to starting her research). She has been committed to the development of a parent-based child mental health intervention based on Bowen theory for over 20 years and has supervised teams in this space (CYMHS and Headspace) for decades. https://parenthopeproject.com.au/
She is a clinical member and supervisor for the Australian Association of Family Therapy and, in 2018, received the Australian and New Zealand Journal of Family Therapy award for distinguished contribution to family therapy in Australia. In 2022, she received the annual research award from Bowen Centre for the Study of the Family in Washington, DC.
Jenny has published widely, including the best-selling book for a broad audience = Growing Yourself Up: How to Bring Your Best to All of Life’s Relationships.
