Professionals

Here at the CUBE our foundations are based on the ethos of restorative approaches, which means we believe people are the experts in their own lives and that people, partners and communities are at the heart of everything we do.  

We can offer training in restorative approaches and in trauma informed practices, including practical, therapeutic powerful interactions. 

Working with many professionals who support children they often share how they are worried about 'opening a can of worms' in conversations.

This course aims to build your confidence in how to approach difficult conversations and support children and young people.

We also believe in supporting the implementation of these practises, so offer an opportunity for our facilitators to come to your school/organisation a few months after training to spend time to help implement the learnings. We work with you to strengthen your skills and help support you develop further in your learning.
