Event description
When faced with the challenging behaviours of a traumatised child we can become amongst other things, irritable, anxious, hopeless and overwhelmed. The intensity of the stress can make us feel inadequate, manipulated, exhausted and depressed.

She also founded and owned for 22 years, the UK’s largest school of massage. She was a respite foster carer for 2 years prior to adoption in 2011 and is now focusing on therapeutic touch and resilience programmes for adoptive parents and foster carers.
