Living in poverty has a devastating effect on children’s and parent’s mental health. New report from @CentreforMH @CYPMentalHealth @savechildrenuk sets out the actions Government must take to eradicate child poverty and boost mental health:...

You may never know what someone has experienced. But when emotions come ‘from nowhere’ and the person seems overwhelmed in sadness, grief, fear, terror, overwhelm, shock or they are frozen and stuck- be kind to them. Our bodies store memories way deeper.We need to learn as humans

Anyone working in this challenging yet rewarding field. Comprehensive in its scope, this book leaves no aspect uncovered. It is essential reading for every service and practitioner,encouraging deep reflection on the crucial role each person plays in the journey of trauma recovery

1. This is what a professional in Aberdeen said about it:; Your book is much more than a guide; it is a lifeline for practitioners dedicated to trauma recovery. It offers a wealth of wisdom, knowledge, practical advice, and empathetic interventions that will inspire and equip

So I’ve finished the manuscript of How to Navigate your child or teen through to trauma recovery. It’s a 94,000 word book that means I need to really write a part 2. But I’m excited. I hope it will bring hope to many when it comes out! ❤️

So I’m a few weeks until I had in my latest book manuscript that was meant to be 60-70k but is now 90k. It’s a ‘how to navigate your child/ teen through to trauma recovery’. What would you be hoping to find in there ? Just checking it’s all covered! 📚

Loved training day 4 of the 6 day course I’m running for the South Glos Violent reduction unit and sexual exploitation team. Love police and social care teams coming together to wrestle with reflections on trauma. It’s so lovely being in person and not online! Great coffee too!❤️

A tiny snippet of my new book How to navigate your child or teenager through to trauma recovery. 53,000 words done so far! It’s being quite fun to write now! ❤️‍🩹

Can you DM me so we can collaborate and make our voices louder?? Child development theory should be a foundation on which all decisions around children are made. Play and creativity needs to be brought back in. TI training cannot continue to be over simplified.

How many of you are in positions where you are gathering the voices of leaders within education to say enough is enough? We cannot let our children continue to be misunderstood by the powers that hold the education system. Heads & SLT cannot work harder but the system is broken?
