Reflection and Professional Development

31st January 2026

On 31st January, I stepped away from delivery and into reflection by attending a Reiki retreat as part of my ongoing professional development.

As a Level 2 trained Reiki practitioner, this was an opportunity to slow down, ground myself, and deepen my understanding of practices that support regulation, presence, and emotional well-being. The retreat offered space to reflect, integrate learning, and reconnect with the importance of looking after the practitioner as well as the people we support.

While I don’t often share this side of my work publicly, taking time for reflection and learning is an essential part of how I continue to show up calmly, clearly, and effectively for clients and families.

The insights gained will gently inform my work going forward, supporting parents and young people to feel steadier, more regulated, and better resourced.
