Who We Are
Shirley Green BSc (Hons), MSc, GMBPsS
I have worked with children and families for over 30 years, with the last 10 years being dedicated to the support and development of professionals.
My degrees in Psychology combined with practice qualifications and experience in Domestic Abuse, Life Coaching and Youth Work have given me a comprehensive understanding of theory behind human behaviours. My experience of working with children and families from birth upwards, across services from children's social care, youth work, early years and targeted domestic abuse services, has enhanced my learning and enabled me to put theory into practice.
I understand the practice and practical challenges of working with vulnerable and disengaged people. My experience has influenced my goal to provide training and development opportunities to individuals, groups and organisations which increases the motivation and confidence of professionals to engage and improve outcomes for service users.
I believe building better relationships improves engagement, safety and the desire for change.
