Really lovely & recharging time! Nature & our beautiful countryside really can provide a nourishing & healing space. Great as always spending time with @dr_treisman & really looking forward to our next therapeutic social work program @adoptionplus starting this September!

We will be starting our therapeutic social work course next month. My fave longer course! It is such a nurturing, supportive & creative course & small so that we can have a really relational connecting experience. Half f2f in gorgeous setting in Milton Keynes half virtual. We only have 2-3 places left- we get phenomenal feedback and people have gone on to do amazing things @Adoptionplus - https://t.co/nAltHLq3V6
