Mental Health - Wellbeing - Resilience

I offer bespoke presentations on the themes of mental health, wellbeing and resilience in your place of work and design 1, 2 and 3 day group workshops and longer term programmes which can be delivered through a combination of online weekly zoom sessions and in-person, on-site days over 6 to 12 weeks.


Working with families and children is an incredibly rewarding career. It can also be very demanding and the last 3 years have been, in particular, very very challenging.


Professionals also live within the society they serve and are affected by many of the same factors as their client groups eg. ill health (mental and physical), bereavement, interpersonal challenges, family breakdown, financial stress, marginalisation and intersectionality can impact heavily, as they can with anyone.


Add to this a high pressure, professional role with regular exposure to high need, including distressing events and compassion fatigue, primary/secondary trauma and burnout can occur.


I am passionate about systemic family support through providing trauma-specialist psychotherapy services for primary carers and importantly, the professionals supporting them.


Please get in touch if you would like to find out more for yourself or for your team.


I also offer 1:1 trauma-focused psychotherapy sessions for professionals working in health & social care and education services, online or in-person. Do get in touch to find out more.




“Mary-Joy provided training for our entire staff team on self-care, compassion fatigue, and building resilience in caring work-settings; and the session was brilliant. Mary-Joy is supportive, understanding, informative and made the sessions fun, engaging and positive even when discussing more challenging material and circumstances. Thank you Mary-Joy for your insightful and good humoured advice- our staff found it incredibly useful and thought-provoking.”
