I’ve heard the phrase “trauma-informed” for years, so when I finally took a full Trauma and Violence-Informed Care training, I didn’t expect much more than clarification.

What I didn’t expect was a shift in how I understand behaviour — mine included.

👉 Watch the video here:

In this video, you’ll learn:

• What trauma-informed care actually is (and what it isn’t)
• Why trauma and violence don’t stay neatly in the past
• The four key elements of trauma-informed care, explained through lived experience
• How a simple reframe can reduce judgement and increase compassion
• Why this approach matters whether you work in a helping role or not

This isn’t a training or a how-to, but more of a reflection of my experience and what you can expect if you choose to take the training.

Until next time, I’m Jeff and remember to take care of yourself, however that looks for you.
