Psychological First Aid - Supporting people in the immediate aftermath of disaster.
Free open webinar
With Dr Laura Wood and Anya Charnaud
This webinar is for anyone. You do not need to be a health or mental health professional.
When we are faced with people in a lot of distress or who have experienced disaster and terror, it can feel overwhelming and hard to know how to best support them.
Psychological First Aid helps you and the people who need it reduce distress, meet basic needs, access services, adapt and keep going. In this webinar, we will discuss the basics of Psychological First Aid, practical examples where it can be applied, the basics of trauma and recovery and where to find out more with time for Q&A.
Speakers:
Dr Laura Wood - Paediatrician, PhD researcher and VITA Research Director with a special interest in child & family modern slavery, trauma and recovery.
Anya Charnaud - Senior trauma specialist psychotherapist and clinical supervisor with special interest in trauma and complex PTSD
