About Trauma Insight

At Trauma Insight, we believe that trauma-awareness is essential not just for therapists, but for every educator too. Founded by a psychotherapist and trauma specialist, we saw a critical gap in educational environments — staff regularly encounter students affected by trauma but often lack the training to respond effectively.

Our mission is to bridge the gap between trauma theory and real-world application, providing schools, colleges, and alternative provisions with the tools they need to support students, reduce challenging and disruptive behaviours, and promote resilience in both staff and pupils.

Our mission is to transform schools and colleges into trauma-aware environments where staff feel confident in supporting students affected by trauma while maintaining their own wellbeing. By partnering with education providers, we embed practical, research-backed strategies that create lasting change in school culture and student outcomes.
