Wildways Therapy welcomes all clients and actively promotes, advocates for and supports safe therapeutic spaces for those who identify themselves as being from marginalised communities and/or where their identities intersect across those groups.

*​To support an understanding of my training and clinical skills and in the absence of an equivalent framework in England and Wales, I have adopted the NHS Education for Scotland (NES)  ‘Transforming Psychological Trauma: A Knowledge and Skills Framework' in recognition of Scotland's world leading commitment to developing a National Trauma Training Strategy for professionals.
As outlined in the Survivor Scotland Strategic Outcomes and Priorities (2015–2017) publication.  https://transformingpsychologicaltrauma.scot/media/x54hw43l/nationaltraumatrainingframework.pdf

The UK Government has, however, recently (02/11/22) published their definition of Trauma-Informed practice, which you can read here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/working-definition-of-trauma-informed-practice/working-definition-of-trauma-informed-practice?fbclid=IwAR0FRnUuSRaoHwhSduc_ICtuhWWfArEhuwN85ECxrF8L_qaxiD9HkTZNkiA
