Trauma and its impact on the brain, body and spirit
Trauma and its impact on the brain, body and spirit
Tuesday 12 November
10am – 1pm
Zoom online
Professor Richard Rose will use the concept of Monsters and Ghosts to present a new approach to understanding the impact, processing and presentation of trauma. With extensive experience of working with the impact of trauma on young people, the training will introduce a way to make sense of the ghosts, taming the monsters and leading to recovery.
As a result of participation in this session, carers will:
- Gain greater understanding of theory around trauma
- Gain greater clarity of the uniqueness of trauma and traumatised young people
- Gain a greater understanding of the short-, medium- and long-term impact of the invisible hurt
Throughout his Social Work career, Richard Rose has worked with children and their families in out of home care and within birth family placements, with the aim of enabling these placements to become healthy and nurturing. Richard is the author of The Child’s Own Story - Life Story Work with Traumatised Children (2004); Life Story Therapy with Traumatised Children - A Model for Practice (2012) and Innovative Therapeutic Life Story Work (2017). In 2020 he founded Therapeutic Life Story Work International (TLSWi).
The session is designed for kinship, foster and permanent carers.
