Working in schools, residential care, social care, or alternative education settings can be incredibly rewarding — but it can also feel challenging, unpredictable, and exhausting at times. Children may shout, throw things, hide away, or look at you blankly, as if they don’t know what’s happening.

This training provides a space to explore what those behaviours may be communicating, notice how trauma shapes children’s responses, and consider ways to work therapeutically with children.

Our workshops give professionals the space to pause, reflect, and make sense of trauma. This is not just theory — we bring ideas to life, connecting them to the real challenges you face every day.

Our Understanding the effects of childhood trauma through the child’s voice workshop offers a space to step into children’s worlds, exploring how trauma has shaped their experiences through their words and narrative, and how professionals hear, hold, and work with that voice.
