TRAINING/WORKSHOPS

I am an experienced clinical psychologist with a proven track record of delivering impactful training and workshops in the field. My expertise lies in providing comprehensive training sessions aimed at enhancing the skills of residential care workers, foster carers, adopters and clinicians within the social care field.

I have successfully trained professionals in the integration of PACE (Playfulness, Acceptance, Curiosity, and Empathy) and trauma-informed approaches into their practices, fostering a more effective and empathetic caregiving environment.

​

Furthermore, I have conducted training sessions for fellow clinicians on a diverse range of topics, including working with young individuals dealing with challenges related to gender identity, dissociation, the impact of menopause on both physical and mental health, and the nuanced intersection between attachment difficulties and autism.

​

One of my ongoing commitments includes the delivery of an 8-week therapeutic re-parenting course tailored for adoptive parents, special guardians, and foster carers. This program is designed to equip caregivers with the necessary tools and insights to navigate the complexities of their roles, ensuring the well-being and emotional development of the children in their care.

​

My specialised workshops and training programs are meticulously crafted to cater to the unique needs of individuals and organisations seeking to deepen their understanding and enhance their skills in the realm of mental health and trauma. With a focus on psycho-education, I highlight the profound effects of trauma while highlighting the transformative benefits of trauma-informed approaches.

​

My commitment lies in tailoring my workshops to address the specific requirements of clients, ensuring relevance and applicability in diverse professional settings. Through a comprehensive exploration of trauma and its multifaceted impact, individuals gain a nuanced understanding of the complexities surrounding mental health challenges.

​

I place a particular emphasis on trauma-informed approaches, guiding individuals through practical strategies and frameworks that foster a more sensitive and supportive environment. By integrating psycho-education into training sessions, I empower individuals to navigate the intricacies of trauma with greater empathy, awareness, and effectiveness.

​

Whether you are a clinician, caregiver, or part of an organisation, my workshops provide a valuable platform for acquiring essential knowledge and skills that contribute to a trauma-informed perspective. I strive to create a more informed and compassionate community dedicated to promoting mental health and well-being.
