Consultancy & Training

 

We have frequent requests from other professionals to discuss difficult situations in their workplaces and how we might assist.  Recent examples are;

  • A solicitor asking whether a psychologist or a psychiatrist would be best to assess a particular issue for the Family Courts
  • A teacher asking how best to support a child who had been bereaved following familial homicide
  • A social worker asking how to gain the trust of a father diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder, in order to assess his parenting abilities
  • A vicar asking how to support a man convicted of sexual offences
  • A barrister asking how to soothe a distressed, traumatised client

Preliminary chats are always free of charge and if additional support is required, a bespoke package of training, mentoring and ongoing consultancy can be discussed.

We have delivered various lectures, seminars and workshops on issues such as emotional wellbeing at work, emotional wellbeing in parents, personality development, working with complex clients, assessing those with learning difficulties, assessing those with personality difficulties, managing group dynamics, managing psychopathic clients.  Our most recent community event in Manchester was about loneliness and a recent lecture was about child sexual exploitation.

Please ask about our bespoke training and consultancy packages.
