Working with children from traumatic backgrounds is hard and practitioners can easily become stuck when certain behaviors and emotions arise.
Prepare to be unstuck. In this course, renowned author and award-winning therapist Deborah Gray provides scenario-based training with practical "how-to" advice for caregivers and practitioners that are working with children from challenging backgrounds.
Join this course and learn how to help heal the wounds of trauma and promote healthy attachment with disadvantaged children in your care.
If you enjoy this short course, we encourage you to check out the longer accredited post-graduate online course that we developed with Deborah and the Honestly Adoption Company. The Attachment-Trauma Focused Therapy (ATFT) program covers in-depth themes that you find in this Trauma Informed Care course.
