Course summary

Course overview

No-one is immune to trauma; it can affect everyone in some form or another. Understanding the nature of psychological trauma is paramount in helping those who are suffering the most. It's a challenging and complex occupation, but has many rewarding and life changing moments.

Our MA Trauma Informed Practice is for those who work with people who have experienced or are experiencing trauma. The course takes a holistic psychosocial approach to trauma and provides you with the core knowledge and theory needed to become a professional in the field. You'll explore models of psychological trauma and consider how trauma impacts on mind and body and later in the course you will look at organisational responses to trauma.

You will enhance your knowledge of childhood trauma and adversity, as well as understand the life-long implications this can have on person’s wellbeing. You will be introduced to the new frontiers in trauma practice including the concept of working with people who are ‘living in trauma’, the ways in which we might start to think about and understand ‘trauma perpetration’ and finally ‘trauma prevention’.

You will be able to draw from the broad range of existing knowledge, skills and research of staff and colleagues in the

  • Centre for Trauma, Resilience and Growth
  • .

    Upon completion of the course, you'll be equipped with the skills of understanding trauma and have the capacity to develop research and evidence based practice to help those who are suffering.

    This course attracts students working in many different roles such as nurses, teachers, social workers, probation officers, counsellors, psychologists, occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, art therapists, physiotherapists, artists and others whose work is in a trauma related field.
