Title: Trauma Informed Care for Educators/Helping Professionals by Campus PSY (Singapore) Synopsis: Dealing with trauma is an unspoken part of an educator’s work. Students who present themselves as difficult, rebellious, anxious, fearful, or aggressive often have unseen trauma that educators have to deal with. Having a better understanding of trauma and learning how to help lower the prevalence of adverse childhood experiences as well as its associated mental health issues can make a difference to our students by breaking the cycle of behavioral problems, thus contributing to better academic and learning outcomes.

Title: Trauma Informed Care for Parents/Caregivers by Campus PSY (Singapore) Synopsis: Sometimes as parents and caregivers, we find ourselves frustrated and clueless. Why is my child behaving this way? Why is it that whatever I’ve been trying doesn’t seem to help? Sometimes odd or disruptive behaviours may be a child or young person’s attempt to cope with unseen trauma and pain. Research shows the impact that a supportive parent/child relationship can have on mitigating the effects of trauma. Our trainer from Campus PSY wants to help empower you to identify, support, and facilitate healing to potential trauma in your child / ward, partner, and yourself.
