TIPS for Tuning In- Trauma Informed Practice Skills
Length: 1.75 Hours
TIPS for tuning in uses a 1980’s Boombox analogy to help providers and caregivers with recall and learning transfer while building a combination of trauma responsive, relationship building, and behavior management skills that can be used across home, schools, and childcare.
The training program builds on evidence-informed behavioral parenting programs such as Helping the Non-Compliant Child and PCIT while including relationship building skills similar to those in Child and Adult Relationship Enhancement. Research findings demonstrated improvements in a number of dimensions that have been correlated with well-being for children including parenting self-efficacy, and child behavior outcomes
This focused session will provide participants with hands-on skill building TIPS around increasing positive attachment and enhancing relationships with children with trauma histories. TIPS aims to provide skills to help you TUNE IN, enhance resilience, and minimize behaviors.
Objectives:
- Learn specific trauma informed parenting strategies and skills to support children who have experienced trauma.
- Practice 3 trauma informed strategies for engaging children and youth through specific tuning in skills.
- Identify specific skills related to "changing the station."
