On this episode of The Social Work Pivot, I’m thrilled to welcome Laura Taylor, Independent Social Worker and Therapeutic Parenting Coach. With over 15 years of experience in child and family social work, much of Laura’s career has been dedicated to working with children in care and supporting foster carers. She is passionate about trauma-informed care and enhancing the practice of parents, carers, and professionals in both home and residential settings.
Laura recently transitioned from statutory social work into independent practice, and in this episode, she shares her inspiring journey. If you're considering a move toward independence, stay tuned as Laura offers practical advice and insights to help you make that leap!
