My Safeguarding Commitment

Multidisciplined Psychological Practitioner


Safeguarding is at the forefront of what I do to promote your wellbeing.

This applies in my mentorship, facilitation and as well as speaking.

My aim is to make sure you are safe. Safe in decision-making, places you enter and daily practice. Safe practice means being the best version you can be for yourself, others, your goals, and partners and children you may or will have. I care about you as a Human, not as a name as a client. You thriving matters -

WHY!

If you have read my lived experiences (though the find out more page) you would have seen I went through so much in my life and truth be told I was never really seen, looking back no one could see themselves to even see the next person. They led with judgements of people's experiences and were in positions that were meant to be of care or support. I keep my safeguarding practice up to date, I have been trained as a designated safeguarding led when I worked in education, which just means I have been trained at a higher level. I use the principles I learn within my practice and sessions.


Being a safe individual - being the best for you!

I have my own coach, engage in the coaching/mentoring cycle. It's vital that I have my own space to process, unpick and action. I engage in guided self-help - therapeutic space. My mindfulness practices such as grounding, meditation and journalling are to support my reflection, personal development, growth and healing.


Equally, I undergo regular learning to level up and maintain my practice. - This can be found in my credentials page. 

Our mentorship relationship will have healthy challenge to stretch your mind and capability, my commitment is to handle this with care, safety and reflection. 


WHAT USED TO BE PAIN IS NOW POWER

I believe that we cannot change something that we are not aware of. People think that telling others about the areas they need to change is enough it's so much more than that.


Often we tell people what should change in conflict and stressful encounters which leaves our thinking in FFF (flight, fight, freeze) response. 


We have limited time or opportunity to process let alone act on. This is the first step in my framework - factors of change and anything I deliver embodies bringing awareness within the subject area. 

Often it is not enough to be aware, we must acknowledge the impact of our thinking, experiences, and actions. 


This takes time, reflection and exercising skills that only the consistent and dedicated achieve.


It's easy to say, I have no trauma, my well-being is fine or my mindset is on ten. 


ABUSE, EXCESSIVE DRINKING & DRUG TAKING, SURGERY, LOSS, AND ADJUSTMENT ALL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE IMPACT. 


Commit to the process, not the outcome.
