Hello!

I'm Leanne, and I'm a children's services researcher and qualified Therapeutic Parenting coach.

My main research interests are around the education of care experienced children and young people, and support for adopted children and their families. More personally, I'm interested in developmental trauma and trauma informed practice, and how the needs of some children can be overlooked by adults because the children appear 'fine'. 

On this website you can find out more about my work and interests, and my forthcoming book, by using the links on the left of the page.
