I have over 20 years experience  in working  within Children and Families Services for various local authorities and within the Criminal  and Youth Justice system,  in community , residential and custodial settings.

I hold a Diploma in Probation Practice and a CBT ( cognitive behaviour therapy ) coaching certificate. 
I have a background in delivering accredited programmes,  parenting interventions, and psycho educational interventions to children and young people diagnosed with conduct disorders and/or  neuro-divergent and language and/or developmental delays. 

 I have extensive experience in working with families affected by high level of  parental conflicts and domestic abuse and delivering training to professionals.

I have extensive experience in providing peer support and group supervision to facilitators delivering accredited interventions. 
I am  experienced in assessing and delivering accredited interventions to individuals who have displayed  sexual   harmful behaviours and/or  used aggression and/or violence in intimate relationships.   

My NVR journey begun in 2019, I never looked back! Despite being trained in several accredited models NVR is my chosen approach and informs my practice even when using other approaches.   NVR is not just a therapiutic intervention, but it has become a way of life and ‘the more I think NVR’ the more I love the idea of sharing the approach universally in supporting individuals, families and  building healthier and violence free communities.
