My cat is an excellent self-directed learner. Completely resistant to my efforts to try and teach him tricks, he follows his interests and passions wherever they lead him.

If you need a bit more help than him, then maybe my book Changing Our Minds could be what you are looking for. It's 99p on UK Kindle just until midnight tonight (Feb 28th).

It's the book I wrote while watching my children learn outside school. I brought together my training in developmental psychology with what I was seeing in front of me. I read the research and talked to academic experts. I wrote it late at night because it was the only time when I could guarantee (mostly) that there would be no interruptions.

Please share if you know parents who are trying to find another way for their children to learn.

''EMDR has been life-changing. I absolutely love it.”

Hearing Lily Allen speak so openly about EMDR therapy on the Miss Me? The podcast is brilliant to see.

She shares how a recent session helped her explore her relationship with money and self-worth — a great reminder that EMDR isn’t just about big T trauma, but the beliefs and patterns that shape our daily lives.

The discussion is at 24:17-26:38 into the podcast.

It’s been a really positive month for me for EMDR within my own practice, for my EMDR supervisees and being part of the wider EMDR community.

Seeing how people respond to EMDR to help make sense of, and resolve, their difficult life experiences never ceases to amaze me and it’s been wonderful to be alongside some clients who are getting ready to finish their therapy with me now and who have really benefitted from this approach.

I’ve also had the great news this week that two of my supervisees have achieved EMDR accredited practitioner status which is a huge milestone and reflects years of refining and developing their practice. I’m so pleased for both of them.

Professionally, not only did I have a great in person EMDR consultants event last weekend, but I’m also looking forward to facilitating on a part 3 EMDR training for the rest of this week. It’s always great to be part of introducing new therapists to this model when I’m facilitating and I’m looking forward to the next three days.

And finally, to top it all off I was lucky enough to given this gorgeous gift by a supervisee. It’s been a good week!

Do you have a teen who just seems to have lost their mojo? Who doesn’t want to do anything and for whom nothing is interesting anymore? They could be burnt out, and they (or you) might find our self-help book (by me and Eliza Fricker Missing The Mark) for burnt out teens helpful. Even if they won’t read it, it might help you to understand what’s going on.

It’s a non-pathologising look at burnout and it’s suitable for teens with and without a diagnosis. Our aim is to help teens see that it’s not just them, and that the way they are feeling is not their fault. Informed by psychology, clinical and lived experience, it helps you and them to see a way forward.

The most exciting news is that for the first time Amazon (UK) have made it 99p on Kindle. This will be time-limited so please share with any parents who might appreciate it.
