Bath Publishing: Staying Sane in Family Law (Workshop and Free Book)


9th October 2025 - 5th November 2025

Whatever your role in family law, it’s vital that you have the skills to cope with anxious, fractious clients and preserve your own professional well-being. After all, a stress free advisor is a more effective one.

Our Staying Sane in Family Law seminar will give you the tools to deal with all manner of emotionally charged situations. Annmarie Carvalho, a former family lawyer turned award winning therapist, will share tips, techniques and expertise that will help you handle the high-pressure situations with sanity intact, leaving you with:

    • a deeper understanding of your clients and your work using concepts from the world of psychology and neuroscience
    • a range of therapeutic techniques for working with all manner of clients, including those who are neurodivergent and/or those with vulnerabilities including mental health disorders and addiction;
    • the tools to work in a trauma-informed and psychologically aware way; and
    • an understanding of the approaches for dealing with anger and resistance.

The seminar will benefit all levels of practitioner and from all disciplines – solicitors, barristers, mediators, financial professionals and counsellors/therapists –  and is brought to life by Annmarie’s own unique style and the stories from her own real world experiences.
