Om episode
Given how the world has been going, it’s about time we acknowledge that trauma is a much more regular occurrence than we might have originally believed. With that in mind, we asked Brian Middleton (a.k.a., the Bearded Behaviorist) from the Oh, Behave! podcast to join us to discuss research on trauma-informed care. We review signs of trauma in treatment, simple ways to avoid adding stressors into your practice with others, and how to respond professionally to research critical of your life’s work (i.e., behavior analysis).
