During safety overviews before a flight, we’re instructed to put on our own oxygen masks first before assisting others. In the same way, as professionals and parents, we have to take care of ourselves before we can continue to care for the children in our lives. To close out this audio series, we’ll hear from several guest experts on what they do to support their own well-being as trauma-care providers.

In this episode, we’re taking a closer look at clinical training programs for healthcare professionals in many fields: how to make the training more trauma-informed, and how students can best navigate those programs if they’re interested in providing trauma-informed care.

Now that we’ve examined key concepts to understand the many ways that children experience trauma -- and the many ways that they and their families are resilient, it’s time to get a bit more practical. How can we as mental health providers help foster resilience in children? Plus, hear from trauma-care providers what you can expect if you’re looking for trauma-informed therapy for yourself or your child.
