How Trauma Informed Excellence can transform the work of helping...
The Trauma Informed paradigm has led to one of the most fundamental shifts in the helping professions in our time. TIE is a holistic approach which incorporates research in neurobiology, psychology, business, genetics and other fields into a comprehensive roadmap toward trauma informed work and overall excellence.
Trauma Informed Excellence Foundations: Recent research on the brain and trauma gives those working in the helping professions a new paradigm to conceptualize and work with clients. Understanding how trauma impacts brain development puts harmful behaviors and destructive thinking patterns in context. This training presents the Trauma Informed paradigm in a practical context, giving learners both a foundational theoretical and knowledge basis to apply the paradigm immediately in their work. Through the application of this Trauma Informed paradigm, staff at all levels of an organization, from board members to clerical staff, can partner in the creation of an environment for traumatized individuals to regain control of their lives.
Trauma Informed Excellence Care: At the core of the TIE Model is a clear understanding of the impact of trauma on the individual. This understanding helps maximize opportunities for growth, and minimize the possibly of re-traumatizing the client. DMS believes that it is important for direct care professionals to assess the impact of trauma on the client in order to position clinical interventions to have maximum effect. We help you learn how to build client robustness through aspects of physical, mind and social health. The client-centered workshops can help enhance services by focusing on client resiliency and post-traumatic recovery and growth.
Trauma Informed Excellence Thrive: As research into trauma has evolved, it has revealed the dangers inherent to the helping professions. Active trauma, vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue and burnout are serious threats to a helper’s well-being in all aspects of life. Thrive offers the opportunity to better understand the dangers of working with stress/trauma, including information about the various forms of trauma. Learn strategies to enhance overall health in the face of trauma and stress while also providing knowledge and techniques to increase resiliency, focus and overall performance.
Trauma Informed Excellence Leadership: The Leadership-focused workshops allow managers, supervisors and executive staff to position Trauma Informed principles to improve client services and organizational outcomes. Leadership is a critical component for the full realization of the Trauma Informed paradigm. These trainings offer a complete model for leadership in helping organizations by combining best practices in business with Trauma Informed principles and approaches. DMS offers opportunity to increase your understanding of the TIE philosophy, along with how trauma impacts individuals, systems and organizations. As a result you will gain the ability to implement strategies that maximize staff health and performance, as well as leadership strategies to improve program, system and organizational success.
