	Structured Sensory Interventions Learn trauma-specific intervention tasks and techniques as well as see them in action. Participate in an encapsulated demonstration of major intervention activities. TLC’s three Structured Sensory Intervention Programs for children 3-18 years of age will be reviewed and questions about their use will be answered. These outcome-based intervention programs are designed to help traumatized children find relief from the terror of violent or non-violent trauma inducing incidents.
	What Do I Tell My Child When I'm Scared, Too? This presentation was created for professionals who work with parents of traumatized children. Dr. Steele discusses grief and trauma, unique presentation modules, and appropriate educational tools designed for parents.

	Zero to Three: Trauma Interventions This training will provide you with the background and tools needed to work with infants and toddlers and their caregivers after they have experienced a traumatic situation. You will learn how to educate parents, facilitate secure attachments and reduce arousal reactions so that healing can occur. This course is available online or Caelan can come to your agency or organization.

	Art Intervention Art and drawing help traumatized children externalize and concretize their experience in a language that can then be cognitively reframed. Sensory-based interventions are key in facilitating trauma debriefing, re-enactment, and resolution. This course provides a foundation for why drawing and art activities enhance trauma intervention and our understanding of PTSD in children. Participants will learn how to recognize the signs of PTSD in children’s art and specific interventions for use in schools, shelters, hospitals and clinics.

	Trauma Memory Recovery This presentation focuses on understanding the physiology of trauma by understanding the normal life-preserving survival responses of “flight/fight/freeze” in an individual and how they fulfill nature’s species-preserving function. Investigating the disturbance of these responses forms the essential foundation for understanding symptoms that results in Post-Traumatic Stress and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Trauma is fundamentally a highly activated incomplete psycho-physiological response to threat, frozen in time. What is significant in the resolution of trauma is the completion of incompleted responses to threat and the ensuing discharge of the energy that was mobilized for survival.

	Trauma Debriefing The TLC Debriefing Model fits with the uniqueness of school and agency settings. The models address the developmental issues, time and resource constraints, needs of staff as well as students/clients, administrative issues and trauma response issues. Five models are demonstrated: Debriefing for adolescents and adults, Defusing for K-5th grade, Operational Debriefing for all staff, Debriefing the Debriefers, Crisis Team members or first respondents and Classroom Presentation which is different than debriefing and usually initiated before the start of debriefing.

	Play Therapy This presentation provides the participant trauma-specific play therapy strategies. Strategies (puppets, sand tray, and other mediums) will be demonstrated and critical therapeutic guidelines related to their use will be highlighted. A review of the most current trauma-specific books for use in sessions will also be presented. Participants will also take part in activities using some the materials discussed.
