A Thriving Life for Every Child.
Romana's journey has and continues to be in pursuit of A Thriving Life for Every Child.
In seeking to make meaning of her own lived experiences of adversity, trauma and marginalisation, Romana has engaged with formal public education systems, comprehensive sexuality education and a training in Presence Oriented Psychotherapy.
Across the various roles she has played, she has developed her expertise as a facilitator of personal and collective transformation that weaves an understanding of the human mind, sexuality and the impact of trauma and systemic oppression.
