Wellbeing and Mental Health in Schools Conference

Welcome to the Wellbeing and Mental Health in Schools Conference! Join us at Haggerston School for a day filled with insightful discussions, workshops, and networking opportunities.

The day will involve:

• A keynote by Deborah Lee. Deborah is a consultant clinical psychologist whose expertise lies with the nature and treatment of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). She is particularly interested in the use of Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT). Dr Lee is the author of the acclaimed book, The Compassionate Mind Approach to Recovering from Trauma: Using Compassion Focused Therapy and she is a founding board member of the Compassionate Mind Foundation. Compassion in a therapeutic context has been at the heart of Dr Lee’s research for some time, including compassion towards one’s self. She has worked with survivors of rape, interpersonal violence, and childhood abuse. Dr Lee is currently working as an expert with a COVID trauma response working group at UCL.

• A range of workshops relevant to our work in schools
• The chance to eat together and lunch is provided.

We are currently arranging operational details, and would really appreciate if you were able to reply to this calendar invite so that you can confirm with your school/clinic diaries and let us know any dietary requirements for lunch.’
