Author Biography
Kate Silverton is one of the UK's most prominent and popular presenters. Her passion has always been advocating for children and their emotional well-being. Her academic background is in child development, and she has a degree in psychology. After becoming a mother, Kate decided to go back to school to train as a child psychotherapist. She now combines her professional career as a journalist with her studies, and currently volunteers as a child-finding therapist, working with children in a London elementary school. Kate's work as a therapist with children, her own experience with psychotherapy and the interviews she has conducted with world-renowned psychiatrists, neuroscientists and psychotherapists have informed her approach and the idea she has conceived for this book. Her philosophy is: "If we get it right from the moment of conception through the child's fifth year of life, we can put our child on track for life."
