“Knowing Your Child and Your Child Knowing You” is the title of a free, two-hour seminar to be presented on October 15 for parents and grandparents of infants and preschoolers.
This Saturday event will be from 10 a.m. to noon in the Madrona Room at Orcas Center. It is sponsored by the Orcas Medical Foundation and will be presented by Catherine Henderson, Ph.D., A.R.N.P.
“Recognizing and acknowledging infants’ and preschoolers’ thoughts and feelings builds ‘emotional muscle’ in parents and children,” writes Henderson.
Ms. Henderson is an advanced registered nurse practitioner with a Ph.D. in clinical psychology. She is a training and supervising child and adult psychoanalyst at the Seattle Psychoanalytic Institute and a faculty member at the Center of Infant Mental Health at the University of Washington.
Her private practice is in Bellevue, where she sees mothers and infants, children, adolescents and adults for psychotherapy and psychoanalysis. Catherine is a member of the Orcas Medical Foundation board of directors.
