Trauma Informed Workforce

Let's meet to enhance your skills when working with traumatised populations.

"Thanks so much for yesterday's training, I really enjoyed the workshop. I was wondering if you offered external supervision for social workers?"


Case Manager

"So interesting. Well named, "Trauma Informed", as there's so much information. Fascinating subject and it can affect all of us, as well as those with whom we work. "


NDIS Support Worker

"Interesting."


Case Worker

"Thanks again for your time and expertise yesterday. Your facilitation style and approach were perfectly suited to our team and our work. We couldn't have asked for a more perfectly aligned session 😊. The balance of science and intuition was really engaging. I also appreciated the focus on listening to ourselves, body wisdom and the importance of self-regulation - we've been reinforcing this messaging with team, and it was great to begin a new year with this front of mind."


Manager

"The content was incredibly insightful, and your approach was both compassionate and engaging. I loved how you created such a safe and welcoming space where I felt comfortable and empowered to engage and learn. The information was presented in a way that was not only easy to understand but also immediately applicable in real-life and real-work situations. I truly feel that I walked away with a better understanding of trauma and how to approach it in a more mindful and supportive way in my work. I found it really validating for the work that we are already doing as an organisation and inspiring to delve deeper in the recovery and healing work that I offer here. Thank you for offering such a transformative experience for us all."

A Comprehensive Workshop for Working with Traumatised Clients

This immersive training program is designed to equip you with a robust understanding of the intricate dynamics of trauma, its neurobiological implications, and the stress cycles associated with it.

My aim is to provide you with practical, immediately applicable skills that will enhance your professional capabilities when working with traumatised clients.

Care Support Worker

"Thank you so much Cherie and Krystal. Friday was such a brilliant day – despite the context of the content!"


DV support worker

"I really enjoyed the session and feel lucky to have been able to see it. Very interesting material and food for thought now and for the future. I’m going to pass on to my husband who has been in very high-pressured jobs and experienced bullying in his work life that has been traumatic for him at times."


Consultant

"My biggest challenge would be vicarious trauma and sustaining my wellbeing in the work that I do. I loved learning more about this, strategies to cope and knowing that I need to face this challenge and continue to be responsible and accountable for my self care."

"I'm glad I went!"


Caseworker

"Helpful and interesting!"


Support Worker

"Some unfamiliar concepts could be explained/expanded, eg acronyms. Personally I had a little trouble hearing the participants, inevitably people talk while the presenter talks. Good crowd control though."


NDIS Support Worker

"Content was excellent - thank you."


DV support worker

"Cherie, I would like to say thank you for the recent Trauma Informed Workplace training that I attended. I got a lot out of the training for work and also understand a bit more about my own self as well."


DV Caseworker

"The trauma training provided valuable insights into the profound effects that trauma can have on individuals, both physically, behaviorally and emotionally. One of the biggest takeaways for me was the importance of a trauma-informed approach and culture in our workplace. Understanding how trauma impacts the nervous system, brain chemistry, and behavior really broadened my perspective on how we interact with individuals who have experienced trauma. The focus on creating a safe, non-judgmental environment where people can feel heard and supported resonated deeply. It’s clear that building trust and ensuring safety are foundational to any healing process. I also appreciated understanding that trauma is not a one-size-fits-all experience and must be approached with respect for different backgrounds and experiences. Overall, this training has equipped me with more knowledge and tools to approach individuals with greater empathy and to create spaces where they can begin to heal. I feel more prepared to engage with people in a way that promotes recovery, healing and empowerment."


Caseworker

"I just want to say thank you for bringing so much knowledge, wisdom and experience and compassion into the workshop. The energy you gifted us was extremely generous and I am so lucky to have been apart of this training with my team. I look forward to our continued work together. Thankyou so much Cherie - you are such a gem!!"


Caseworker

"Was great to see you, and thank you for the support you have provided our service both for the staff and the clients. We're very lucky to have this great partnership. Thanks again."
