Trauma Informed Care

Our Trauma informed care training has been designed by our clinical staff and delivers a strengths-based framework that is grounded in an understanding of and responsiveness to the impact of Trauma. It emphasises the impact this has on both survivors and support providers.

Learners gain an extensive understanding of Trauma, signs and symptoms, causes and impacts of this. They will then learn the Six principles in depth, and how these can be embedded into the work that they provide within their own services.
