As a former dentist with many years experience working with people who found accessing dental treatment difficult, I can offer relational support to help you negotiate your relationship with your dentist, and having a voice in your dental care. Dental treatment is often connected to experiences of trauma and powerlessness. I have worked in community dentistry with people from many different walks of life to help them to have a different experience and feel like participants in their own oral health.
I also offer relational training and facilitation for dental surgeons and nurse teams who identify a need to develop their ability to connect with and support patients in their practice.
