Full course description

This introductory-level continuing education course is available for practicing occupational therapists, physical therapists, and speech-language pathologists or students who are interested in increasing their knowledge and competence in using a trauma-informed approach. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the neuroscience behind trauma, learn resilience/coping strategies to provide trauma-informed care and minimize secondary trauma, and apply those strategies when working with individuals across the lifespan (pediatrics, adults, older adults). By the end of the course, participants will have a toolkit that will guide them in their practice and help foster a trauma-aware atmosphere.
