This webinar is designed for health professionals working across mental health, naturopathy, nutrition, bodywork and integrative healthcare, and aims to enhance practitioners’ confidence in recognising trauma responses, applying trauma-informed communication and supporting clients safely within their professional scope

Integrating perspectives from neuroscience, somatic psychotherapy and integrative medicine, the presentation bridges mental health, physiology and holistic care in a clinically sophisticated and practitioner-focused format.

Exploring trauma through the lens of neuroscience, nervous system dysregulation and

survival physiology.

trauma in clinical settings.

• Recognising Nervous System States

Identifying signs of sympathetic activation, shutdown, freeze responses and dissociation.

• Language That Helps vs Language That Harms

Understanding trauma-informed communication and how practitioner language can either

support safety or contribute to dysregulation.

• Creating Safety in Clinical Spaces

Examining co-regulation, therapeutic presence, informed consent, pacing and the

physiological importance of safety in healthcare environments.

• Regulation Strategies for Practitioners

Introducing practical nervous system regulation tools including grounding, orienting, breath

regulation, sensory awareness and pacing strategies.

• Recognising Dissociation

Learning to identify dissociative responses and respond safely within scope of practice.

• Ethical Considerations and Scope of Practice

Discussing practitioner boundaries, referral pathways, re-traumatisation, practitioner burnout

and trauma-informed ethical care.
