Creating the Environment for Recovery from Trauma
Some children and young people (and indeed adults) experience terrible and frightening events, but seem to get through them relatively unaffected. Other will experience high levels of difficulties and distress which endure. And still others, will initially be distressed, but over time their distress decreases. This short talk will briefly explain the way in which potentially traumatic events affect people, why some are more affected than others, and how a particular type of environment can be created around a child or young person which will maximise their chance of recovery.
