The Trauma Awareness Module: Participant Feedback

This course genuinely made me approach my work with a completely new perspective. I think we all like to believe we are relatively trauma aware, but when you peel it back there is so much we don't know. Not only will I take away what I have learned and use it in my practice, but I'll be applying it to my personal life and relationships as well. The speakers were so passionate about what they do, it was infectious! I firmly believe this is a course every solicitor should do at some point in their career, it will completely change your perspective and the way you approach client relationships for the better!
