The e-module Trauma Informed Interactions has been prepared by Aberdeen City Council’s Educational Psychology Service. The knowledge and skills covered within the module sit within the "Trauma Informed" level of National Trauma Transformational Programme (NTTP). The content is therefore applicable to all working within the Scottish workforce.
This 20 minute e-module will help staff learn how they can de-escalate situations by promoting safety, understanding, and empathy. By recognising that past trauma can influence current behaviour, individuals can respond with compassion and avoid triggering further distress. This approach emphasises building trust, respecting personal space, actively listening, and validating emotions, ultimately creating a safer and more supportive environment for everyone involved.
