We use Therapeutic Life Story Work Model (TLSW).
We include you in your individual journey through integrating the past to make sense of the present. We work with Adopted and other Special Guardianship Order (SGO) looked after children/young people and young adults.
The TLSW practitioner gathers information from different files such as Social worker’s reports, courts reports, and through interviewing other people who may have information.
The child /young person or young adult are encouraged to externalize, feelings which are recorded on the wallpaper. This is when it is important for the primary carer to be present so that they hold the pain and feelings for their child/ young person or young adult.
The Life Story Book contains the information recorded on the wallpaper during internalization. The child/young person is supported to decide what is included in their book.
The Therapeutic Life Story practitioner will write up the individual Life Story Book based on the information discussed, written and shared with you during sessions. The drawings that have been recorded on the wallpaper can also form as part of the book. This book will be handed to you when it is completed.
