Webinar description

This webinar will provide you with ideas for using books to support looked after children on issues which really matter to them, whether they be living with foster parents, in children's homes or other similar arrangements.

They may have a lot of worries, concerns and questions, and sometimes we may not know if we are the 'right person' to have a conversation that could really help them.

Clinical Psychologist Shona Quin (Psychology Space) has worked in child and adolescent mental health services for over 20 years, specialising in working with children and adolescents living away from home. 

Shona will introduce the benefits of bibliotherapy and how to use it, as well as introducing material she has written herself, on such relevant themes as arriving into foster placement, experience big emotions and coping with them, experiencing flashbacks, and more.
