Reflective Practice Space – Glasgow Life - face to face and online
“Thank you for the sessions. I found them really beneficial, enjoyable, and safe to say we all looked forward to sessions and the time that it gave us to reflect on our practice and team.”
“It created a space where I felt we bonded as a team and understood each other’s strengths It gave me a place where I could reflect on my own persona, experience and how these related to my work. I found it a safe place to reflect and be vulnerable with my team members. Also enabled to discuss some of the challenges of the job and discuss with colleagues and gain support.”
“I feel I don't carry as much of the heavy stuff home with me and I'm able to accept that I've done my best with the situation for the day and not take it home to my family.”
Jaks’s den- The regulating power of movement- Face to face
“Today's session should have been longer, and it would have been great to experience the rough play examples. Really made me think about being bored, free play etc.
Excellent session is better than the webinar because you can do and discuss things throughout and be practical.
The role of relationships in emotional regulation- Online seminar
Thank you for such a wonderful webinar. It encapsulated so much and was great learning for me. – Volunteer at Place2be
Neurodivergent emotions- online seminar
“It was fun interactive online. I was able to take time out and focus on it.” Family Support
