Workshops and Training
I have a long history or designing, developing and delivering new, specially tailored training packages to organisations (such as Coram BAAF, Local Authorities, fostering agencies).
Examples of training on mental health/psychological perspectives for foster carers, social workers, and charities including modules on:
- child development
- trauma
- attachment difficulties
- mental health difficulties
- working together in complex systems
- good beginnings, middles, and endings in foster care
- caring for those diagnosed with autism, ADHD
- communicating and engaging with children with disabilities
- challenging behaviour (including that of adults in the system)
- grief and bereavement
- working cross culturally, with interpreters, and asylum seekers
Examples of ongoing workshops and reflective spaces
I also have extensive experience in providing workshops and reflective spaces to staff in local authorities, fostering and adoptions agencies, therapeutic and social work training schemes, and charities. These have focused on:
- anti-oppressive practice
- vicarious trauma prevention
- using systemic principles and self-reflexivity in front line practice
