EMHP and CWP Training Articles

If you’re training as either an Education Mental Health Practitioner or Children’s Wellbeing Practitioner, I hope you’ll find these ‘nuts-and-bolts’ articles helpful. They’re based on what I’ve learnt as a university clinical tutor working with trainee EMHPs and CWPs, and also from my time as a CAMHS clinician in schools. The caveat is of course that these are just one person’s perspective. We are all learning as we go, and the articles are only intended as a springboard for further discussion. I’ll try and publish one per week.
