The Youth Endowment Fund is funding a randomised controlled trial of a therapeutic intervention to help parents to reduce their conflict.
Do you have a child or children aged between 8 and 14? Are you currently in conflict with your partner or co-parent? The Support for inter-parental conflict (SIPCo) project could help.
We are looking for parents who live in Dorset, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole (BCP) and Bristol who:
The SIPCo project aims to help you learn strategies to reduce the conflict between you and your partner, or between you and your co-parent if you are no longer together.
Referred families will receive either mentalization-based therapy for parents under pressure (MBT-PP) or specialised online resources and support for reducing parental conflict provided by the local authority. Which kind of support families receive will be decided on a random basis.
MBT-PP involves online therapy sessions with a therapist, in which you will be supported to communicate better. MBT-PP is delivered by Tavistock Relationships.
The online resources are programmes that you will work through at your own pace with the support of a local authority staff member.
We expect both interventions (MBT-PP and the online resources) to be helpful to parents who need to reduce their conflict.
