Trauma Therapy by Trish

Trauma Therapy by Trish Award winning Coventry-based Emotional Wellbeing & Educational Support Services for ages 4-104 years! Let's talk about baggage!

Working with schools, charities & individual private clients. Lifting Lives & Raising Results to improve long term life chances. We all carry around "stuff"; thoughts, opinions, memories & fears that have formed based on our past experiences. There are no rules about how quickly we should get over things. But if there is trauma that is continuously impacting on your daily life, then it is important to seek help. ​

Emotional Trauma is not an event, it is how one unique individual reacts to and processes an event that may have been traumatic for them. Some are genetically better equipped to cope; others may have just experienced too much to be able to keep going any longer. Some may have underlying mental health or physical health conditions that impact on the ability to deal with some of these events causing them to re-live the events in their minds or live in fear of them, preventing them from enjoying their life in the here and now, or planning and dreaming of a brighter future. Left unresolved, this can negatively impact on long-term emotional wellbeing and be a contributory factor in more serious mental health conditions, it can damage relationships, and lead to dependency on others, substances or dangerous habits and activities. There is HOPE and there is SUPPORT available. Drawing and Talking is a 1-2-1 therapeutic intervention suitable for Children and Adults. It allows time and space to process and deal with trauma in a safe way. Drawing allows the deeper part of the brain to be involved, especially the right-hand side of the brain where powerful emotional memories are stored visually. This therapeutic intervention is offered in many schools but is also effective for adults experiencing the difficulties of un-processed trauma. (Panic attacks, sleep problems, flashbacks, lack of concentration, withdrawal, stomach problems, tension headaches etc)

Hopefully you are enjoying a calmer half term...

But how is it going for young person at school?

I regularly get parents contact me about difficulties their children are facing, particularly if they have changed school.

Firstly, YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

Change can be difficult, and the change from Primary to Secondary school is a BIG one.
Drawing & Talking may help young people work out for themselves what is actually worrying them, so that then they can communicate it, and then get the support they need.

My Transition Support Offer is still available for all bookings taken before 30 November.
FREE Meet & Greet opportunities available before committing to anything. 🎈

Many schools (locally) will be breaking up for the half term break today...

Next week I will be speaking more to parents about services, this week my posts have been aimed at school staff.

One school responded to my contact saying:
"We are awaiting some EHCP decisions, and if this is mentioned in them, we will be in touch." 🎈

NEWSFLASH!
📢 This intervention is not exclusive to children with SEND or EHCPs
📢 This intervention, delivered to the right child, can benefit the whole class and beyond
📢 We shouldn't be withholding support whilst decisions are made (especially considering the high number of refusals for diagnosis or EHCP at first attempt, and long waits for answers).

Let's talk PUPIL PREMIUM FUNDING
✅In Coventry there are HIGH numbers of eligible children.
These include;
🔸 those eligible for FREE school meals (or who have been in the last 6yrs)
🔸 LAC and some previously LAC (looked after children)
🔸 Children of Armed Forces Personnel (or were in past 6yrs, and those who receive compensation for death in service)

PPF can be used for Eligible Pupils
PPF can be used to support other pupils with identified needs
PPF can be used for whole-class interventions which may also benefit non-disadvantaged pupils

My services fall under WIDER STRATEGIES (valid PPF spending)
✅supporting pupil social emotional and behaviour needs
✅supporting attendance

So let's talk!

I quite often get the impression that schools THINK working with me will cost a fortune... 💭
We don't have the budget...

Well let me try and put some perspective in here about cost;

💷 I am experienced in delivering this intervention, it is not one of many tasks I have to complete every day (Quality Service)
🪙 I provide ALL materials for the sessions (No Hidden stationery or equipment costs)
💷 I am a self-employed sole trader (No Extra PAYE / Pension costs or VAT)
🪙 You are not tied in to long term contracts; you only book when you need it
💷 For Primary Schools this support can be provided for 5️⃣ children for the price of just 1️⃣ child's Pupil Premium Funding

PLUS
✅ Your in-house staff can continue doing their amazing work

This is a GREAT VALUE, EFFECTIVE intervention that really makes a positive difference to pupil's lives, enabling them to access learning to their full potential. 🎈

We need your help and some spare change. Well quite a lot of change, but please have a read…….

🚐 Back & Forth Men’s Mental Health: The Mobile Hub Project

“Sometimes all it takes is a chat.”

At Back & Forth Men’s Mental Health, we know that taking that first step to talk can be the hardest part. Many men struggle in silence, feeling isolated or unsure where to turn. That’s why we want to bring the conversation to them — with our Mobile Hub, a safe, discreet space on wheels where men can simply show up and talk without fear of stigma or judgment.



💬 What is the Mobile Hub?

Our dream is to create a converted vehicle — part coffee spot, part conversation space — that can travel to communities, workplaces, sports clubs, and public areas across Coventry and Warwickshire.
Inside, men will find a warm, welcoming environment where they can:
• Sit down for a private chat
• Access information and signposting for mental health support
• Connect with others who get it
• Have a brew, share a laugh, and take that first step Back & Forth toward better mental health



💪 Why It Matters

Men are still far less likely to reach out for help when they’re struggling. Too often, we hear stories of those who felt they had nowhere to go.
The Mobile Hub will change that — bringing support directly to where men already are, making it easier to just stop by, talk, and feel seen.

This project is about removing barriers and starting conversations that could quite literally save lives.



🎯 What We Need

We’re raising funds to help us:
• Purchase and convert a suitable vehicle
• Kit it out with seating, heating, and privacy panels
• Stock it with tea, coffee, and conversation materials
• Cover running costs so we can reach as many men as possible

Every donation, no matter how small, helps us get one step closer to hitting the road and reaching the men who need us most.



❤️ How You Can Help

If you believe no one should face mental health struggles alone, please donate whatever you can.
If you can’t donate, you can still help by sharing our page and spreading the word.

Together, we can make it easier for men to talk, connect, and move Back & Forth toward brighter days.
