Amanda Jones will talk about her work with fathers. More information to follow.
Dr Amanda Jones is Consultant Perinatal Psychotherapist and Head of a multi-professional community Perinatal Parent–Infant Mental Health Service in London, UK. She advocates for publicly funded perinatal mental health services, recognising that emotional and relational challenges can emerge before or during pregnancy and often continue into the toddler years.
Her leadership is marked by the capacity for the often difficult task of holding in mind the perspectives of parents, babies and professionals simultaneously. This enables her to create services that are both clinically rigorous and deeply humane.
Internationally sought after as a teacher and supervisor, Amanda is widely respected for her ability to translate complex theory in parent–infant psychotherapy into clear, accessible language. She shares her expertise through professional training, conference presentations and widely broadcast documentaries, including the award-winning Help Me Love My Baby, which has brought the realities of early therapeutic intervention to a broader audience.
