#STANCE2026 Workshop Spotlight: Wee Breathers

Supporting children and young people who have experienced disrupted attachment and trauma can be incredibly rewarding, but it can also take an emotional toll on the professionals supporting them.

At STANCE 2026, Laura Ross from ...Scottish Attachment In Action will introduce #WeeBreathers - an attachment-informed and trauma-sensitive reflective supervision programme designed to support the wellbeing of education and care professionals.

The workshop will explore how protected, reflective spaces can help professionals:
๐Ÿ”น Process the emotional demands of their roles
๐Ÿ”น Reflect on experiences and strengthen their practice
๐Ÿ”น Support their own wellbeing and resilience
๐Ÿ”น Build stronger, more supportive relationships with vulnerable young people

Creating space to reflect, process and breathe is an important part of sustaining trauma-informed practice.
