Ways that we can work together
There are a variety of ways that we can work together.
I can collaborate with you on an existing project, offering expert comment or interview in my specialist areas or we can develop a bespoke event just for you.
My relaxed and interactive workshops and trainings can make a great addition to an event or wellness day. If you are looking for something more formal, I offer a variety of conference presentations including academic teaching, keynotes and lived experience speaking.

"I was at a conference yesterday, at which Shelley talked about PTSD. It was informative, pitched at exactly the right level and extremely well delivered. Shelley is clearly on top of her subject!"
