Trauma‑Informed Mental Health First Aid - Practitioner Programme (Online)
A full‑day CPD accredited trauma‑informed programme for professionals who want to support others safely, ethically & without overwhelm.
A safe, ethical, and trauma‑informed alternative to traditional Mental Health First Aid training — designed for professionals who support others in high‑pressure, high‑responsibility roles.
This full‑day, live online Practitioner Programme provides a grounded, neuroscience‑informed framework for responding to people in distress without overwhelm, activation, or stepping outside professional boundaries.
It is suitable for anyone whose role involves supporting, advising, safeguarding, leading or caring for others — including those working in education, health, law, leadership, corporate environments, public services, community roles, and regulated professions.
Throughout this 8‑hour training day, you will learn how to support others safely and effectively using a trauma‑informed, relational, and non‑clinical approach rooted in the latest evidence from neuroscience and polyvagal theory.
