“My overriding comment is that the training was fabulous, a real eye opener for some and a real reminder of the importance of self care to the rest of us....I think the biggest impact was the ability to spot trauma in ways that we might not otherwise have thought of. This was certainly something I discussed with my team after the session and everyone (independently) said the same thing. Since the training, I have definitely adapted some of the training principles into my calls with students....This approach has certainly taken a lot of my calls in a different (more positive) direction.”

“Camilla and Rebecca are obviously expert in their subject and communicate the science and concepts in a clear and interesting way. But what sets them apart is their extensive legal experience. They know, at first hand, the difficulties that vicarious trauma can pose to barristers, both personally and in their practice. This allows them to connect directly with, and gain the trust of, the barristers at their sessions so that they feel able to engage in the training in a full and open way. As a consequence, their training was very well received in chambers and we plan to work further with them in the future.”

"I suffered a traumatic event whereby I was assaulted at work by those who were meant to protect me. I did not know how to cope and I did not know how to deal with a lot of emotions. I had a series of six coaching sessions with Rebecca which enabled me to get through the proceeding months. She listened. She empathised. She understood. Rebecca gave me a series of coping tactics that I will take with me throughout my life. She gave me the space to exude and explore all my emotions, and she did not judge. Rebecca was extremely easy to talk to and she was always available. Even when our sessions came to an end, she was and is there."

“Camilla and Rebecca were absolutely fantastic. Their familiarity with the unique chambers environment meant they could make their content entirely relatable, capturing the imagination of our audience who are exposed to vicarious trauma on almost a daily basis. We received excellent feedback on the session and it was real food for thought.”

"You created a space where it was safe for me to express what felt right or not right in moments, allowing me to feel autonomy in sessions. There was a foundation of care and mutual respect, and the positive regard you hold for me as a client was almost palpable...[I have] a life-long gratitude for the way you have supported me these past two years to find my inner stability and softness.”

“The presentation on vicarious trauma was excellent, it was an engaging and thought-provoking session. The delivery made the content accessible and prompted discussion well after the session ended.”
