title: The process of consultation to a health visiting team based on the Solihull Approach: a critical reflection.
abstract: This paper aims to provide a critical reflection of the process of consultation offered by a child and adolescent mental health service (CAMHS) to a health visiting team. The consultation process followed two days of training in the Solihull Approach and took place over five 90-minute sessions at six-weekly intervals. In this paper, the Solihull Approach is used as a framework for understanding the consultation process, and the concepts of containment and reciprocity are explored within this context. The challenges and successes of the process are shared and the importance of providing a containing space for frontline practitioners is highlighted.
