Upcoming workshops
Healthy Parents, Healthy Child
Saturday 10th October ONLINE
9.30am - 6.30pm (UK Time)
What does it mean, to be a healthy parent?
Unresolved early trauma (in utero, birth & infancy) forms the blueprint of what is possible for each of us, when we become parents ourselves.
If we are not wanted for who we are, not loved in a way that is healthy, and not protected from danger – both inside and outside of our family environment – we do not have within us the necessary resources to truly want, love and protect our own children.
When we begin to take our own trauma seriously, to acknowledge and start to feel our own split-off pain, then we automatically become clearer about who we are and what we want out of life. From this standpoint, we can start to see our children for who they are, and to value and cherish them, as we become able to value and cherish the younger parts of ourselves.
Children who have been carrying the burden of their parents' unresolved trauma - in the form of physical or mental 'illness', addiction or 'behavioural disorders' - can start to relax once their parents attend to themselves.
This workshop is open to parents, adoptive parents, foster parents, parents-to-be, and anyone who works with or cares for children or young people.

Working together in person
Whilst I acknowledge the power and effectiveness of online work, it is also important to me to keep up the practice of working together in person, especially at a time when we are potentially at risk of becoming estranged from ourselves and others as a result what is happening in the 'outside' world.
For more information about face-to-face individual sessions, please contact me
I also intend to start up an ongoing support group for parents in Sussex this autumn ~ to register your interest please contact me
