RHB 3355 - Introduction to Developmental Infant/Early Childhood Mental Health

3 Credit Hour(s)

This is an undergraduate level course and will provide a board overview of early human development for infants and their families. A basic understanding of influences that lead to mental health wellbeing and influences that can push development off track will be examined through the lens of attachment, neurobiology, and biopsychosocial factors. A clinical mental health and reflective perspective will be employed to inform understanding, case conceptualization, assessment and treatment of infants and their families. Course readings and recordings are pulled from clinical and nonclinical infant/early childhood mental health and parent mental health sources.
