DR LISA CHERRY - TRAINER
Relationship Focused Practice - Creating Settings, Services & Systems That Make THE Difference. With the vision of supporting and enhancing relationship focused practice, together we can create settings, services and systems that do not add to harm but rather build connection, safety and belonging.
Trauma-informed practice training offers significant benefits for schools and institutions, fostering environments that are more supportive, understanding, and responsive to the needs of students and staff who have experienced trauma.
By training and equipping educators and institutional staff with the knowledge and skills to recognise and address trauma-related behaviours and symptoms, these trainings help create safer, more inclusive spaces that promote emotional well-being for everyone. This approach can reduce disciplinary incidents, improve student engagement, and enhance overall mental health support systems.
Furthermore, it encourages a culture of empathy and resilience, benefiting not only those directly impacted by trauma but also the broader community by promoting understanding and healthy coping mechanisms.
For staff, trauma-informed training reduces burnout and secondary traumatic stress by promoting self-care and providing tools to manage their own emotional responses. This creates a more positive work environment, where staff feel valued and supported, ultimately leading to better outcomes for students.
