"I really enjoyed this training. It was well delivered and interesting. I really learnt a great deal and I can actually put some of the things into practise."
"This was one of the most useful two hours I have spent learning about anxiety and, crucially, how to help young people with it. I have been on many courses about anxiety but none have really delivered in offering advice and strategies on how to help young people. Thank you so much, I now feel much better equipped in knowing how to help them to cope with anxiety."
"All was really helpful, particularly the background knowledge behind WHY children may behave/express feelings in certain ways (the brain, 3 different systems etc.). I'll definitely be using breathing techniques as an 'in the moment strategy' before talking about what is bothering the child and focusing on listening and understanding the child, not making assumptions or speaking for them."
"I found the detail explaining trauma and trauma models really useful. I have been reminded of the importance of being the 'key adult' and not getting hung up with organisational priorities; the child is the one who is important."
"It has been a real bonus to have these sessions and I think doing them virtually is such a bonus - loads of time has been saved. The quality of the sessions has been excellent. If these had been face to face sessions then there is no way we would/I would have been able to attend so many. They have been invaluable. "
"I've found the consultation sessions really good. It was helpful to speak to a highly qualified professional, who could discuss the situation, strategies in place and next steps."
