Life Story
For when you need understanding


Carers
As carers you have an exciting and challenging role that can be both rewarding and frustrating. The aim of Therapeutic Life Story Work is to help you and your child or young person, work together to develop new insight and understanding as to the origins of current feelings and behaviours. This creates the potential for increased confidence and stronger relationships.
Children and young people
Perhaps you feel that no one cares or that those who do don't understand how you feel. Maybe you’re equally confused. Therapeutic Life Story Work(TLSW) offers an opportunity to be the explore of your world, both past and present.
Local Authority, Adoption and Fostering Agencies
The benefits of Therapeutic Life Story Work are both preventative and reparative. In helping the child or young person gain an understanding of their past, in the presence of their carer, placements can be stabalised and relationships strenghthened thus reducing disruption and longer term costs.
