Children’s Trauma Healing
Sometimes children experience a hard start in life. This may include:
- Abandonment
- Abuse
- Neglect
- Being orphaned
- A broken home with separation or divorce
- A violent or unstable home involving domestic abuse, alcohol, drugs or mental illness
- Poverty
- Difficult or complex births
- A childhood accident or health condition/pain
This is just a partial list and while these may be the more obvious reasons for trauma, trauma takes all shapes and forms and can be more subtle.
These events cause trauma. Left unattended, this trauma can mold a child as it impacts their developing brain and body, shaping and affecting all future relationships, their health and their life.
But there is hope. By intervening with trauma-informed care, we can stop the trauma cycle of destruction and get the child back on track to truly thrive.
Offerings
• Gentle touch energy healing
A very gentle and completely safe child-appropriate form of healing.
• Singing and songwriting
Children can find it very difficult to talk about their experiences and emotions, yet they can
find a voice through singing and writing lyrics about their feelings. This is a powerful and
cathartic way of healing and moving forward.
• A personalised trauma-informed competent care plan
Julie-Anne can create a personalised trauma-informed care plan taking into account the
child’s history and current situation/behaviors etc.
