Training and Consultation

At Touchstone Therapy we have extensive experience delivering training in a number of contexts.  These include:

  • Schools

  • Foster Carers

  • Residential Services

  • Groups of Statutory and NGO staff

Both Suzanne and Tania have a broad and continuously developing knowledge in complex trauma however our training is specifically informed by

  • Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy

  • Three Pillars

  • Synergetic Play Therapy

  • Neurobiological understandings of the impacts of trauma

  • Somatic and Sensorimotor approaches

We can design and offer training in areas such as understanding complex trauma; skills for working with trauma; becoming trauma informed as a service and trauma informed group supervision to support the embedding and ongoing implementation of trauma informed ideas and practices into your organisation. 

We are also available to consult to organisations who are seeking to explore and implement a trauma informed intervention with specific clients.

 
The training itself was a good mix of discussion, the presentation and info, and group work to reinforce the learning. The case study was so relatable and I know many of us had a particular family in mind with similar presenting problems
