Trauma-informed practice with children and families
Trauma-informed practice with children and families
Delivered online using Teams
10:00 - 12:00 Thursday, 14 September 2023
This session is for people working directly with children and their families and provides an opportunity to discuss and share your experiences of trauma-informed practice with other frontline practitioners and learn from their experiences.
Facilitated by Dr Sheena Webb, a clinical psychologist with a special interest in complex trauma, this knowledge exchange session is a structured reflective conversation. Dr Webb will share recent research evidence about the trauma-informed practices that can make a difference and explore the ways you might use this in the context of your organisation.
Dr Webb will also be seeking to learn more about your experiences. Your input will help to inform and prioritise the focus for an upcoming trauma-informed Change Project in 2024.
