Trauma‑Informed Mental Health First Aid (TIMHFA) Awareness Course

3 hr CPD accredited Trauma‑informed Mental Health First Aid awareness exploring safety, boundaries, trauma/nervous‑system informed support.

This Trauma‑Informed Mental Health First Aid (TIMHFA) Online Awareness Course is a 3‑hour, CPD‑accredited programme offering a grounded and compassionate introduction to supporting mental health in a way that prioritises safety, dignity, and wellbeing for everyone involved.

Rather than focusing on fixing, diagnosing, or crisis intervention, the course explores how trauma can shape mental health, behaviour, and responses, and why well‑intentioned support can sometimes cause unintended harm. Participants will develop a clearer understanding of trauma‑informed principles, nervous‑system awareness, boundaries, and ethical responsibility when supporting others.

Designed for leaders, educators, professionals, and anyone in a support or people‑facing role, this course builds confidence to recognise distress, respond with care, and signpost appropriately — without overstepping role boundaries or placing unsustainable emotional demands on oneself.

This is an awareness and foundation course. It provides CPD‑accredited learning and practical insight, but does not constitute practitioner‑level training or a therapeutic qualification.
