Independent Social work, Emotional Support and Solutions for you
Christine Whiting has been supporting people through personal trauma and crisis for over 20 years. Originally Christine started life as a personal injury lawyer specialising in clinical negligence and personal injury. After nearly 10 years as a lawyer Christine decided to retrain and become a social worker, with a particular interest in working with clients and their families experiencing brain injury. Upon qualifying in 2000 Christine worked part-time for a local authority as a social Worker in a team working predominantly with clients with acquired brain injuries. Others had degenerative conditions which required a high level of social work involvement focusing on problem solving and motivational support.
Christine is an independent social worker, social work teacher, trainer and works as a mentor for a number of organisations supporting qualified social workers in their ongoing professional development. Following completion of a diploma in life coaching we extended our services to offer personal development coaching. Christine Whiting is also a consultant case manager for people with an acquired brain injury. She offers this service exclusively via Anglia Case Management who specialise in supporting those with traumatic brain injury
