Self-directed online training

Event description

This course uses trauma-informed practice to study the explicit detail and skills of therapeutic engagement. Starting from working with a child who may be reluctant, to identifying children’s resilience and strengths and using them as a way to help move children past self-blame and hopelessness.

The course focuses particularly on the beginning stages of work with children, acknowledging that children who have experienced trauma are often ambivalent about engagement, or anxious about sharing details of their stories with practitioners. It explores perspective shifts that practitioners can use to demonstrate curious and collaborative practices with children and their families.
