Trauma. Super fun topic. Amirite? However, Trauma-informed Care is a framework, a paradigm, of how to build resiliency and self-empowerment our clients, colleagues, friends, family—and even ourselves. It actually includes A LOT things that are being actively discussed all the time: The neurodivergency movement; presuming competence; cultural competency; toxic work environments; professional burnout; etc…So, this is super important stuff! And I think having a “big-picture” paradigm helps with understanding and navigating all these areas. So, I think every SLP needs to know about TIC and implement it in their practice—regardless of what specialty area they are in. And because it is such a large framework that encompasses so many areas of our pratice, I decided a podcast would be a great way to keep the discussion going.

This is a professional podcast discussing the journey of how to become trauma-informed and how to apply trauma-informed care in the field of speech-language pathology (SLP).
