Ruth is a fantastic trainer. She is a subject expert, but also an expert in 'reading the room' and responding to the needs of the participants. I wholeheartedly recommend her as a trainer.
Joanna Bircher, Clinical Director,Greater Manchester GP Excellence Programme, Clinical Adviser to RCGP
Dr Ruth's passion is supporting practices to become trauma responsive. For many years she has delivered training for RCGP One Day Essentials for GPs on different aspects of mental health:
Dr Ruth draws on her clinical experience within a Psychological Medicine service and working with people who are street homeless to provide practical skills to primary care teams.
"After watching the informative videos, having Dr Thompson attend in person to answer questions and provide practical advice on how to implement trauma informed care within our service was hugely beneficial to the Indigo team. Her knowledge and passion for the subject was apparent and the session was delivered in a sensitive and supportive way that made people feel at ease when discussing a sometimes difficult and emotive topic. We came away feeling empowered and to ask certain questions but reassured we weren't going to cause further harm to patients who have experienced trauma. A highly recommended session."
Dr Luke Wookey, Clinical Director and Transgender Health GP, Indigo Gender Service.
