Overview

Trauma can have a profound and lasting impact on mental and physical health, affecting individuals across all stages of life. "Trauma and Mental Health: The Science and Solutions" is designed to provide learners with an in-depth understanding of how trauma shapes the brain, behaviour, and emotional wellbeing. The course opens with a foundational exploration of trauma and its neurobiological underpinnings, giving students insight into how traumatic experiences alter the nervous system and contribute to mental health conditions.

As the course progresses, learners delve into key psychological effects of trauma, including Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), complex trauma, and dissociative responses. These sections draw from both clinical and research-based perspectives, helping students grasp the complexities of trauma's manifestation and progression. A critical component of the course is its focus on trauma across the lifespan—highlighting how childhood trauma differs from trauma experienced in adulthood, and how early adversity can influence long-term health and behaviour.

In addition to theoretical knowledge, the course takes a practical turn with a module on trauma-informed care. This section equips learners with the principles of trauma-sensitive practice and outlines how individuals in the UK can access trauma-focused mental health services. Emphasis is placed on compassion, safety, empowerment, and creating healing environments for survivors.

The final module focuses on recovery, therapeutic interventions, and the promotion of resilience. Learners are introduced to various modalities including cognitive-behavioural therapies, EMDR, somatic therapies, and self-care practices that support recovery from trauma. Whether you are a professional or someone with lived experience, this course offers tools and insights to foster healing and post-traumatic growth.

This course is ideal for mental health professionals, educators, support workers, social workers, and anyone interested in understanding trauma’s impact and supporting recovery, particularly within the context of the UK’s health and social care systems.

No formal qualifications are required, but a background in psychology, counselling, education, or social work is beneficial. Learners should be open to engaging with sensitive content and have a genuine interest in mental health and trauma recovery.

Upon completion, learners can pursue roles such as trauma support worker, mental health advocate, care coordinator, or continue into specialist training in counselling, psychotherapy, or trauma-informed education. The course also enhances existing roles in healthcare, education, and social care by equipping professionals with trauma-sensitive skills and knowledge.
