Hello, I'm Cole
I'm a creative psychotherapist and somatic practitioner, and a registered dramatherapist (HCPC). I've spent ten years across residential, community and education settings, as a support worker, in management, and as a therapist.
You have to be willing to get messy with them.
People are messy. The work is messy. Everyone is different, and being around people who have experienced significant trauma can feel overwhelming.
Which is exactly why everyone has to work together, communicate, support each other and reflect. And why staff wellbeing has to be prioritised, and people validated for how complex the work is.

I'm creative, and I pick up new hobbies constantly. I'm drawn to holistic practice, to yoga, and to being outside. Most of what I learn there finds its way back into the work eventually.
We can take it from there.
