GROW SELF CARE FOR THERAPISTS AND PRACTITIONER

A therapist/ practitioner’s capacity for regulation when working with children and families is essential. We want to provide a framework, resources, and self-care practices to ensure therapists and practitioners wellbeing is prioritised and protected so that they are working from a window of sustainability, health, and wellbeing.

The workshop will focus on the mental health and wellbeing of the therapist/ practitioner and offer a framework and somatic interventions that are regenerative and replenishing, protecting them from the inherent stress and overwhelm as frontline workers.
