Hello and welcome to PartnershipProject's first Parent Podcast.

This year we are focusing on Parental Presence in the form of monthly podcasts and blog posts. These voices will be from current or past parents who have been referred to PartnershipProjects via a local authority or agency to work with our accredited NVR practitioners. Here, they are permitting us to host their stories, their struggles and successes in their own words, using this platform to share their growth and continued practice of the approach.

We hope that each podcast highlights the unique differences in which NVR can support change in family settings.

This first podcast introduces Sarah an SGO who has been working with our accredited NVR practitioner Dr Tony Meehan https://www.partnershipprojectsuk.com/people/tony-meehan/

Tony has worked with Sarah for 18 months and utilised the NVR principles to support Sarah with her nonverbal autistic grandson, Harley.

A special edition by Peter Jakob and Joanne Buchmüller, writer and Specialist Family and Systemic Psychotherapist in which they discuss the dilemmas in how NVR can be used to support parents and their children with Neurodivergence. They highlight how the exploration of parental erasure and not mattering are the starting points and that resistance methods such as announcements are secondary ways in which parents raise presence, hear their own voice and sense of agency. They caution on the dangers of focusing solely on the methods as a potential to further parental erasure. They also share other important shifts from the classical ideas and how to 'pare back' and simplify methods so that they can be used across children's whole development. Enjoy.

Shila Desai and Peter Jakob discuss some additions to Child focused Practices in NVR . Unmet needs were categorised in four ways which included the need to belong, to feel safe and secure, the need for autonomy with a sense of accomplishment and fourth the need for a coherent and benign narrative of worth and being loved. This podcast throws up a fifth need which is the 'Need for Justice' and how NVR has ignored this 'big elephant' in the room. How do we help adults to initiate justice seeking for their young person and to hold an accountability for their own past failures by using methods such as self announcements whilst continuing to show commitment and responsibility for the future. Enjoy.

Please note there is an abrupt ending at the end of this episode and Peter was unable to say goodbye.
