Course overview:
The overall aim of Trauma-Informed Practice is to ensure that services are delivered in ways that prevent further harm or retraumatisation for those who have already experienced psychological trauma or adversity at any stage in their lives.
Trauma-Informed Practice principles are generally applicable, for instance in: general practice, mental health, residential care, police, criminal justice social work, addiction services and education. Different authors quote slightly differing lists and numbers of ‘key TIP principles’ but most include the following:
- Safety
- Trust
- Choice
- Collaboration
- Empowerment
- And more
To help you achieive the aim of Trauma-Informed Practice the course covers mainly the following:
- The definition of a trauma and what effects are commonly experienced post-trauma.
- The idea that the effects of trauma can persist for a very long time or for ever.
- What makes for a trauma informed organization? The APT’s definitive list of factors comparable with those above.
- Examining additional factors relevant to your own specific situation.
- How Trauma-Informed Practice increases our job satisfaction, motivation and resilience.
- The questions we need to answer if we want our organization to be Trauma Informed as well as your own practice.

Reviews.
APT prides itself on the feedback we receive about our courses. Below are just some of the great comments our Trauma courses have received.
"The tutor successfully completed the almost unheard of task of providing excellent, informative training to a group of very tricky psychologists! He was interesting, knowledgeable and greatly added to our understanding. He represented APT very, very well and he has increased my likelihood of using APT again."
"The best course I have been on in years. I feel empowered to make a change."
