Through this training course, I aim to equip you as a counsellor, social worker or allied professional with a few of the practically applicable tools that I have found to be most effective when working with individuals who have experienced trauma.

We will explore core trauma theory, but there will also be plenty of space for reflection, discussion, and hands-on practice. This is not just a theoretical course—it is a practical, skills-based experience designed to enhance your confidence in offering safe, trauma-informed support.

You will be introduced to a comprehensive, step-by-step trauma support model that prioritises emotional regulation, resilience, and long-term healing. Whether you’re just starting out or already working in the field, this course will give you tools you can immediately integrate into your practice.

Basic Course Outline:

• Introduction to Trauma Support
