Trauma Informed Approach
What is a Trauma Informed Approach?
A trauma informed approach acknowledges the widespread impact of trauma. It involves taking active steps to seek to avoid re-traumatisation.
Awareness of the principles of a TIA helps to build and maintain trust and resilience.
Importantly, it is NOT trauma therapy. This must only be undertaken by a trained therapist and is not suitable for people who continue to experience traumatic events.
