Tanya is an award winning, Trauma Informed Practice specialist with over 20 years experience working with trauma affected youth and adults. Her goal for founding TIPT was to create psychologically safe, trauma informed, diverse, and inclusive workplaces to help protect our most vulnerable.

Tanya is a passionate advocate for mental health and trauma informed practice across all sectors. She has lived experience of PTSD, is a Mental Health First Aid Instructor, a Grief First Aid Instructor, a LEGO Serious Play facilitator and a qualified teacher. She strongly believes education and training is essential to creating psychologically safe workplaces. Some of her clients include Department of Defence, Commonwealth of the Ombudsman, Department of Education, Department of Justice, Bankwest and many more.

“I have dealt with many disclosures of the years and trauma informed practice is an essential part of building trust with victims of trauma, showing compassion and empowering individuals to be part of their healing journey. How people are dealt with in their most vulnerable moments sticks with them forever and can propel recovery or set them back completely.” Tanya identified the gap in trauma training which exists for employees and leaders within the corporate sector.

“With the changing legislation around psychosocial hazards and the Positive Duty Act, there is an urgent need for workplaces to become psychologically safer. Trauma Informed Training Programs can give leaders and employees the education and tools they need to navigate this new space, reduce stress and the need for mental leave and workers compensation claims.”
