About Threefold Path

A trauma‑informed, recovery‑focused consultancy rooted in lived experience, professional expertise, and a deep belief in human potential.

Who I Am.

I’m Hayley — a workshop facilitator, trauma‑informed educator, and lived‑experience speaker.
Threefold Path is the space I created to turn my story into something that supports others: a place where honesty, hope, and psychological safety come together.

My work blends grounded storytelling, relational practice, and a deep commitment to helping young people and the adults who support them feel seen, understood, and less alone.

What I Provide

My work begins with direct, human connection — because that’s where change starts.

I primarily offer:

Assemblies — powerful, age‑appropriate lived‑experience sessions that open conversations, build empathy, and help young people feel seen

Workshops — interactive, relational sessions for students or staff, focused on regulation, behaviour, trauma, and connection

Training — practical, evidence‑informed sessions for whole teams

Consultancy — shaping culture, policy, and practice through a trauma‑informed lens

This order matters. It reflects how I work: start with connection, build understanding, then embed change.

My Lived Experience

My story includes:

childhood bullying and undiagnosed learning differences

domestic abuse and co‑dependency

addiction, relapse, and recovery

navigating social care systems as a parent

grief, loss, and rebuilding

diagnoses including dyslexia, dyspraxia, dyscalculia, visual stress, EUPD with complex trauma, and chronic asthma

treatment and remission from Hepatitis C

raising children and now supporting my children and grandchildren through their own challenges

These experiences don’t define me — but they inform everything I do. They allow me to meet people with compassion, clarity, and a deep understanding of what sits beneath behaviour.

🎓 My Professional Background

I’ve built a strong academic foundation alongside my lived experience:

NVQ Level 2 Health & Social Care

Access to HE: Health & Social Care

HNC Health & Community Studies

FdSc Mental Health

BA (Hons) Applied Health & Social Care

I’ve also worked across Health and Social Care supporting individuals, families, and practitioners navigating trauma, recovery, and complexity.

Why I Created Threefold Path

I founded Threefold Path because I saw a gap: Schools and services were being trained in trauma‑informed theory, but not in how to apply it with humanity, safety, and confidence.

My approach bridges that gap — combining lived experience, relational practice, and practical tools that teams can use immediately.

Where I Work

Based in the South West with two regional hubs:

Somerset Hub — Frome

Cornwall Hub — Mid‑Cornwall

I work across the UK, in person and online.
