This is a practical ‘non-medical’ day for front line practitioners working with children and young people with serious issues arising from trauma.
Drawing from the international research and literature and our own experience over many years as educational psychologists of the challenges of children with major social and emotional needs, we will explore together what the best practice can and could look like. We explore the language and key concepts of trauma and outline very practical classroom strategies.
We look at what Psychology may help us in our understanding of children who have faced trauma.
We explore the themes of:
Hyperarousal
Intrusive thoughts
Constricted lives
We look at triggers, self-regulation and unpack a range of strategies.
We explore what young people with these difficulties really need from us.
We also spend time looking at the emotional impact on practitioners working with children with such needs and what helps at a personal and team level.
We can all do something – we do not have to wait for expert therapists to arrive!

Belonging and feelings are so important
