PSI Intellectual Disability SIG

Hey - This Blocks My Way! Today is - so take a moment to think about the simple things - Where's my car parked? How did I put my bins out? Is my bike parked responsibly? Have I left my shopping trolley in an awkward spot? It's the everyday things that we can easily fix with a little bit of thought. So today, and every day - Make Way and keep access ways clear!

We'd love to see you at the IDSIG AGM. It's online on 25th March from 1-2pm. Register with PSI at https://www.psychologicalsociety.ie/event/SIG-in-Intellectual-Disabilities-2025-AGM

We are delighted to welcome Dr Manus Moynihan for our upcoming lunchtime talk series on Wed 23rd January at 1pm on zoom. Dr. Moynihan is a Senior Clinical Psychologist and Systemic Psychotherapist at St. Michael's House, and will provide an insightful overview of CAMHS-ID (Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services in Intellectual Disability). Dr Moynihan will explore the unique aspects of working within CAMHS-ID and the role that psychology can play in supporting children and adolescents with intellectual disabilities and their families.

Additionally, Dr Moynihan will present a case study detailing his work with a family referred to CAMHS-ID. He will discuss his approach using systemic and social constructionist frameworks, illustrating how these therapeutic models can guide practice in effectively supporting families where a child has complex emotional and behavioural concerns.
