"Our traumas can either be our greatest problem or our greatest superpower," (Dr. Robyn Koslowitz). Which do you believe it is? Reflect on childhood trauma with Dr. Koslowitz, a nationally recognized clinical psychologist, who dives deep into her personal journey and professional insights to help us understand how trauma can be hidden beneath a child's seemingly calm exterior. Dr. Koslowitz emphasizes the necessity for creating supportive environments for children who have faced significant hardships.
This episode offers valuable strategies to help traumatized students maintain a productive learning zone without crossing the threshold into overwhelm. Practical techniques such as allowing children to express their worries and teaching them how to compartmentalize their concerns are discussed. We also highlight the pivotal role of social and emotional learning (SEL) in aiding children to comprehend their stress responses and develop essential emotional regulation skills. Moreover, we provide guidance for teachers on recognizing when additional support is needed for students dealing with significant challenges.
Dr. Koslowitz shares insights from her upcoming book, "Post-Traumatic Parenting," to illustrate how trauma can manifest in everyday parenting scenarios. By examining the concept of secret ACEs and their influence on parenting, she offers tools they need for success. Join us for an enlightening conversation that bridges understanding and actionable advice, aimed at fostering resilience in both children and parents.
