Highly recommend The Anna Freud centre for their courses. I completed my masters with them and their educators are second to none.

Emergency referrals for children and young people experiencing a mental health crisis have significantly increased over the last few years.

A service’s initial response to a mental health crisis impacts that child or young person’s subsequent experience of and engagement with care.

We invite staff from across health, social care, education, and youth services to learn how to use an AMBIT (adaptive mentalization based integrative treatment) approach to support children and young people experiencing a mental health crisis.

Join our courses, that are tailored for specific roles, to develop the skills and confidence to work with children and young people in crisis in your setting.

💐Happy Mother's Day💐

Today, we celebrate the love, strength, and kindness that mothers and mother figures bring into our lives. 💕 But we also recognize that Mother’s Day can carry a mix of emotions.

❤To the mothers—biological, adoptive, foster, step, and chosen—you are deeply appreciated.
❤To those who long to be mothers, we see you and hold space for your journey.
❤ To those who have lost their mothers, may today bring gentle memories and love.
❤ To those with complicated relationships with motherhood, your feelings are valid, and you are not alone.

Wherever your heart is today, know that love surrounds you. Be kind to yourself, take the space you need, and honor this day in whatever way feels right for you. 💛

💬 Sending love to all—how are you caring for yourself today?

Happy International Women's Day!

I'm so grateful for the amazing women near and far that have supported me through every twist, turn, milestone and molehill that life has to offer.

I'm also super fortunate to work with some amazing women. From my colleagues at Children Inspired By Yoga to the women working in the schools and nurseries we work with, to the mothers we see giving their all to their children.

You are all amazing!
