Let's Talk Trauma: A practical overview of navigating from a trauma-informed perspective for coaches, healers, facilitators, & teachers

  • NU MOVEMENT 716 University Avenue Rochester New York United States (map)

As coaches, healers, facilitators, teachers, and space-holders, we're constantly working with people.

When we're working with people, we're working with trauma survivors - and sometimes, we ourselves are the survivors.

Approaching our professional relationships from a trauma-informed perspective can help create a safer space for those we serve and collaborate with, as well as ourselves. Often, this involves making simple adjustments in the language we use and the way we engage with others.

By attending Let's Talk Trauma, you will learn the following:

  • A practice for centering joy in navigating trauma

  • Basic overview of "What is trauma?"

  • Information about our own trauma/wounds that may have led us into healing work

  • Ways to use inclusive language

  • Ways to reference trauma tactfully

  • An overview of the principles of trauma-informed care (aka a codification of basic human kindness)

  • Some best practices for responding when someone discloses trauma
